Pic By HotSpot Media - SWASTIKA’S SPRAYED ON MOSQUE - RACIST graffiti including swastikas have been emblazoned on a £2.5m mosque after intruders forced their way in to the site. The graffiti was sprayed on to walls and at least half a dozen windows using paint taken from builders' cabins on the site in Redditch, Worcestershire. Offensive words and symbols with the initials EDL, NF, KKK and racist language were daubed across the new mosque in blue paint.

It is not known at this stage whether anything has been stolen, West Mercia Police said. ... SEE HOTSPOT COPY 0121 551 1004
