From Stand Up to Racism North West London
STATEMENT ON THE DESECRATION OF GRAVES IN THE MUSLIM SECTION OF CARPENDERS PARK LAWN CEMETERY.
We are appalled to learn that up to a hundred graves, including babies’ graves have been desecrated in the Muslim Section of Carpenders Park Cemetery which belongs to Brent Council.
We wish to express our deepest sympathy with all those whose loved ones are buried in that cemetery. Such vandalism and disrespect is an insult to our whole community.
We condemn this Islamophobic attack and the racist rhetoric from politicians and the media that leads to racist violence. We must see action on Islamophobia and racist attacks now.
We stand in solidarity and unity against all forms of racism, bigotry and hatred. Our community is only strong if it is united.
NW London Stand Up to Racism
IF YOU AGREE WITH THIS STATEMENT, PLEASE SIGN/ENDORSE IT (as an organisation) and circulate it as widely as possible. We hope to organise a vigil or similar event in the near future to unite the community.

Meanwhile, in Willesden Old Cemetery and Paddington Old Cemetery Brent council as policy are desecrating graves of anyone who was dead before 100 years ago
They are re using graves of people dead less than 100 years in Wembley - my friends brother's grave was reused and the family weren't consulted about it all 😞
It’s disgusting. They don’t notify anyone
