I did not expect the Britain to be like this.<\/p>\n<p>\u2018I did nothing wrong. I was only trying to lock my bicycle up to the lamppost when these men started attacking me.<\/p>\n<p>\u2018They punched and kicked me and stole my phone. It was horrible.<\/p>\n<p>\u2018I called my brother Faisal and he called the police.<\/p>\n<p>\u2018The police have done nothing. They have just let these men get away with beating me up. And because of that they will probably do it again.\u2019<\/p>\n<p>His brother, who is married with two young children and has lived in Tooting for the past 14 years, had invited Mr Aman to stay with him in between shifts working at a care home in Buckinghamshire.<\/p>\n<p>He told MailOnline: \u2018We will not let this go.

The suspects then fled the scene.<\/p>\n<p>&#8216;Officers responded. The victims thankfully had not suffered serious injuries and declined LAS treatment.<\/p>\n<p>&#8216;Officers checked CCTV from a nearby restaurant. While it did capture the incident, it was filmed from a distance and the suspects were clad in dark clothing with their faces obscured by masks.<\/p>\n<p>&#8216;Given this, and the absence of any witnesses or forensic opportunities, officers explained to the victims the difficulties this would present in identifying the suspects.<\/p>\n<p>&#8216;They were given safety advice and advised to call 999 if they encountered the suspects again.&#8217;<\/p>\n<p>Source: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.dailymail.co.uk\/news\/article-12801205\/Moment-Deliveroo-driver-savagely-beaten-busy-south-London-street-rival-gang-couriers.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Read Full Article<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Moment Deliveroo driver is savagely beaten on busy south London street by rival gang of couriers Fahad Aman was set&hellip;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v21.8 -
