The 11-year old girl was visiting Eventyrfabrikken together with some friends, and were playing when some of the boys in the muslim group began to quarrel and brawl with them.
While the 11-year-old was playing in a corner of the large hall, she was suddenly attacked by one of the muslim boys. Several members of the muslim group then joined in the attack. A total of seven boys aged from 9 to 13 were participating in the violent attack.
The boys punched and kicked the little girl and called her a whore.
The girl’s family had to drive her to the hospital where she had to spend the night, because of the injuries she sustained during the attack.
Hostile atmosphere
When a female member of staff approached some of the adults with the muslim group to inform them of the incident, the atmosphere became hostile. One of the adults supposedly started pushing and shoving her.
Muslim Association
Twice a year, the islamic society in the region of Telemark, visits Eventyrfabrikken during their celebration of the muslim Eid holidays. On the day of this brutal attack, there were 12 adults and 63 children present at Eventyrfabrikken.
Eventyrfabrikken may now be forced to put up security cameras in the playing area. According to local newspaper Varden, they are also considering hiring extra security guards during the muslim holidays, when members of the muslim congregation are visiting.
Vice chairman of Telemark islamic association, Kawa Salehi, claims he had not heard about the brutal assault when the newspaper contacted him. He also claims that nothing like this has ever happened before.
He denies that they have a different view on women, and says that they would treat male and female employees equally.
Police are looking into the matter.
