By TBT staff

RIGA - Two Somali refugees on Jan. 3 were attacked by skinheads in the Latvian capital Riga, reported Latvian daily Neatkariga on Friday [Jan. 5].
Several skinheads dressed in military-style clothing addressed the Somali refugees in Russian in the tunnel by the central market in Riga. The Somalis did not respond and wanted to pass by, but the skinheads did not let them go. They encircled them and punched them. Even though there were also other people around, nobody interrupted the violence.
The Somalis turned to the police and the police has launched an investigation.
