Therefore, 2 Questions about BBC-information.
3 Leicester-City football players assaulted sexually (broke into their room and penetrated) 3 German women (holiday makers) in Spain - that seems the accusation at the moment.
This is not wrong, however - as it seems - there are points missing.
According to a foreign media - those 3 women have been 2 women from Kenya and 1 woman from Malawi that are existing in Cologne/Germany,(therefore, presumably black and maybe not German nationality).
Questions:
Why does the BBC not report these information ?
Is it necessary to double-check BBC information today ?

As for your point re: BBC not reporting they are black - WTF?!
I would imagine that by leaving OUT the womens race/nationality, it stops bigots from bringing such an irrelevent point to public debate.
peace.

I agree with you totally. Nationality or color should be unimportant. These issues are yesterday's, out of the 19/20 Centuries and today we should not more emphasize such dated terms. We live ALL in one world and we should ALL work and stand together for a better world.
However, please notice, this issue of nationality (German women) was stressed in the BBC reports (not from me) multiple.

I found this information by chance when I visited Yahoo Germany (all sites in German) - sport - Fussball - Europa, at 5.3 and 6.3 there were 3 articles about this case.
One is http://de.sports.yahoo.com/040305/226/3x1h5.html
