Sydney, Apr. 18 (ANI): A woman in Australia has been charged for racially abusing two passengers in a train that led to outrage among others.
The incident made national headlines after passengers showed their support for two fellow commuters who became the target of racist remarks.
Victoria Police spokesman Leonie Johnson said that a woman had been arrested at her South Melbourne home and later released on bail on multiple charges, news.com.au reports.
She said that they have charged a 37-year-old woman with two counts of obscene language in a public place and two counts of behaving in a riotous manner in a public place.
She added that the woman has been bailed by police to appear in Melbourne Magistrates' Court on the 14th of May.
One of the passengers, Mahmood Sereaph Reza, 27, who stood up against racial abuse directed against him and friend Michael Awan, said he bore the woman no ill-will. (ANI)
