Man racially abused victim then punched him on south London train

A man repeatedly punched a stranger in a racist attack on board a train in south London.

The victim was on a train approaching West Dulwich station just before 4.30pm on April 19, when a man he did not know began racially abusing him.

The man then repeatedly punched the victim before getting off the train at Sydenham Hill.

Officers investigating the attack have released CCTV images in connection with the hate crime.
