In the shadow of fear: How the Somnath Bharti incident has made life in Delhi hell for Africans...

The after-effects of Delhi Law Minister Somnath Bharti's shock-and-awe vigilantism against Africans living in the Capital have started to show their ugly faces.

Besides suffering racial and physical abuse, allegedly at the hands of locals, Africans of Nigerian, Congolese and Ugandan origin are now being forced to vacate their apartments in Khirki Extension, and to settle in nearby areas like Khanpur and Deoli village.

When Mail Today visited several localities - Arjun Nagar–Green Park, Munirka, Satya Niketan and Saidulajab in Saket - across the Capital where Africans live, the anti-African mood was palpable.

In Arjun Nagar, the locals thought Mail Today journalists were Aam Aadmi Party volunteers who would beat up the Africans.

In another instance, on enquiring about a Nigerian restaurant in the area, a local asked whether the team of journalists was interested in buying drugs. Full story...
