Workplace racists get jail sentences

I read this in the morning rag and was furious. These buggers are seriously the scum of the earth. I quote:

The men tied their 29-year-old victim to railings, hosed him down with cold
water and even tried to force-feed him bacon – forbidden in his religion, their
trial heard. Some of the bullying, which also included racist comments and
placing an item made to look like a bomb on the victim's locker, was filmed on a
mobile phone camera. The hate campaign against Amjid Mehmood at Amey Mouchel motorway maintenance depot in Bescot, Walsall, had lasted for ten months, Wolverhampton Crown Court heard. Other incidents included setting Mr Mehmood's trousers on fire.

Forget about racism, would you seriously do something like this to your colleague? What are these people? animals? not civilised at all. Absolute barbarians. There is a difference between taking the mickey and blatant barbaric treatment.

All this to be taken with a grain of piquant salt!!!

3 years.. what a joke. Mr Mehmood is someone I know. I personally have seen the trauma. They should have got at least 10yrs. Surely this is a crime of terror motivated by racism/religious hatred... under the new laws introduced shouldnt they have got a harsher sentance or did the judge give them the 'white discount'
