Some unidentified vandals have spray painted a mosque in Scotland with anti-Muslim slogans, prompting police to probe the incident as a “hate crime”. 

The disturbing graffiti was scrawled on the Cumbernauld mosque situated at Craighalbert Way in Glasgow, Scotland. 

The photos of the mosque with racist graffiti on its walls were shared in a series of tweets by Amjid Bashir, who identifies himself as a social media and marketing expert, Community campaigner and Entrepreneur in the UK.

Meanwhile, Tell Mama said, “Given the language and the imagery being conjured up, we believe that the individual who did this is ideologically driven and may well be radicalized by extremist far-right rhetoric, which regularly plays on imagery and text from the Crusades, as though there is a clash of civilizations taking place”.
