‘I’ve never felt so paranoid and unsafe in my life,’ says Irish-born taxi driver on rise in racist attacks

A taxi driver whose car was damaged in a racist attack says he is regularly told to “go back to his country” despite being born here.

Ednan Hameed says he now fears for his safety after the gang smashed the mirror and window of his taxi as it blew up two people in Dublin in recent weeks.
