Jamal Hijazi was attacked in a Huddersfield playground and had to flee town after ‘anti-Muslim’ claims about him by far-right activist
A Syrian teenager who is suing Tommy Robinson for libel is seeking between £150,000 and £190,000 in damages from him.
A lawyer for Jamal Hijazi – who was filmed being attacked in a Huddersfield playground and had to flee the town after the far-right activist aired “entirely distorted anti-Muslim” claims about him – also said Robinson had continued during the libel trial to exacerbate distress caused to the family.
