Sikh kicked out at Wimbledon |
A 20-year-old Sikh man was kicked out of an overnight queue to watch the Wimbledon tennis championships as he apparently made other people around him "uncomfortable". The unnamed tennis-lover took to Facebook last week to voice his anger at being thrown out and claimed it was an act of racism, cases of which have reported a rise in the wake of Britain`s vote to leave the European Union (EU). He wrote : "Kicked out of the overnight camping line for centre court Wimbledon line `because you make some people around you uncomfortable, so we`re gonna have to report you and ask you to leave immediately, sir`". A Wimbledon spokesperson said: "We can confirm that a gentleman was asked to leave the queue at 4.42am this morning (Friday) after a number of complaints from his fellow queuers about his behaviour."
