<p>“Self-styled ‘Sharia patrol’ allegedly launch brutal attack on girl for ‘not wearing HIJAB’”, by Ajay Nair, <a href="http://www.express.co.uk/news/world/732298/sharia-patrol-allegedly-launch-brutal-attack-teenage-girl-headscarf-hijab">UK Express</a>, November 15, 2016:</p>
<blockquote><p>In the horrific footage from Vienna, Austria, the 
youngster is seen being violently attacked by a group of girls and a boy
 in what is believed to be a “Sharia patrol”.</p>She told newspaper Heute: “Look, I knew if I would fight back, I would only get hit more. So, I just waited until it was over.”
<p>The youngster said she was threatened by the gang not to got to the 
police, but her sister did so while she recovered in hospital.</p>
<p>A police spokesman said: “We know the youngsters, they were already involved in similar cases in Lower Austria.”</p>
<p>It is thought a group of six youths, aged between 16 and 17, are being investigated by officers.</p>
<p>The latest incident comes after <a href="http://www.express.co.uk/news/world/670888/Sharia-patrol-Vienna-beat-dad-protecting-daughter">three men from a self-styled “Sharia patrol” in Vienna were jailed</a> after beating a man after intervening when they accused his daughter and wife of acting inappropriately.</p></blockquote>
