Vandalised gravestone
Many headstones were overturned
Three young boys have been arrested following attacks on Muslim graves in Leicester.

Thirty headstones at Saffron Hill Cemetery were desecrated last week.

It was the second time in four months Muslim graves had been targeted there.

Two 11-year-old boys and a 12-year-old were released on police bail, pending further inquiries.

Since the attack there have been calls for CCTV cameras to be installed around the cemetery.
