A group of students from Turkey were attacked and told to”'go back to their country” on Monday in Słupsk, northern Poland.

Police have arrested three men aged between 29 and 41 for beating the four exchange students in the city's university district.

Witnesses reported that there was a mutual struggle and swearing from both parties. The police managed to stop the first two attackers, and caught with another one some time later.

All three attackers have a criminal record with local police.

“The perpetrators of this event have already been charged with insulting and being violent to others as well as racist taunts. The regional prosecutor has placed them under police supervision,” Słupsk police spokesperson Robert Czerwiński said. (rg/rk)
