During the attack, they allegedly hurled racial slurs, shouting “F— off, Indian" before fleeing the scene. Singh was left unconscious on the road, sustaining serious injuries, including facial fractures and brain trauma, reported The Australia Today.

While speaking to 9News, Singh said: “They just said, ‘F**K off, Indian,’ and after that they just started punching." In a critical detail captured in the aftermath, Singh’s wife followed the assailants while filming the scene and managed to record the car’s registration number as they drove off “like nothing happened".
