An Iranian was almost stabbed to death in a Dutch migrant centre after fellow asylum seekers reportedly found out he was gay.

Police initially thought the attack on the 25-year-old in the town of Bellingwolde in the north-eastern part of the Netherlands was drugs-related.

But an LGBT organisation says it has witness statements confirming that the assault was because the victim is gay.

A shocking picture has emerged of the Iranian lying in a pool of his own blood shortly after the knifing.

A 34-year-old Tunisian asylum-seeker is suspected of carrying out the attack on September 15, details of which have only just emerged.

The young Iranian man had just left the room of an Iranian family in the asylum centre when the attack unfolded.

They had been drinking gin to celebrate his 26th birthday the next day.

When he walked out of the room after the small party, he was immediately attacked and a knife wound in the thigh, severed a main artery, according to reports.

The Iranian immediately fell to the ground. Paramedics were called and rushed him to a nearby hospital.

The police initially said the motive was that the Iranian had refused to sell a joint to his attacker.

Quote:

But LGBT Asylum Support says it has statements of witnesses confirming the homophobic motive.

The organisation's Sandro Kortekaas said: 'At least it looks like a good idea and desirable to me to reinvestigate the case.'

The victim recovered from the stabbing and is now living in another asylum centre.

Kortekaas added: 'The central asylum centre authority gives a false sense of security. Even if the victim has been moved, he is still confronted by friends of the perpetrator.'

The public prosecutor's office said in a statement that while their initial investigation has not yet proven there was any anti-gay motive, they had decided to look into the matter.

The Tunisian man has been detained on suspicion of attempted murder.

Disgusting. Was he stabbed by Iranians/Muslims though? I wouldn't be surprised if they were.

It's so sad to see someone who escaped prejudice and bigotry only to face a situation like this. It's like wherever you go you can't escape those kinds of people. Anyways, I'm glad he's alive.

I really really don't want to sound insensitive but how are an Iranian and a Tunisian asylum seekers ?

This story is sad, what's even more sad is that it's not really surprising, may he RIP.

The people responsible for it must be sent back to wherever they came from. Whoever did that clearly isn't ready to live in a first world country.

Well the Iranian is gay and would likely be harassed or killed if he was sent back to Iran. Idk about the Tunisian.

So sad. Iranian immigrants are usually more open to Western society and culture, so it's sad to see how often they're harassed by the sunni muslim immigrants who escaped from same problems as them.

He's not dead.

This is tragic news. It's beyond me that something like this happens here in Holland. Hope the detained man gets sent back to Tunisia. He does not deserve to live here or anywhere in Europe.

Being gay helps with asylum applications in Europe, right? Gays fleeing a country like Iran have a much better reason to be seeking asylum than most.

A Tunisian and an Iranian shouldn't even be here. Their countries are not under any threat.

How did he survive all of this

And now he'll hopefully recover and continue living his life, while the other one will live half of his life in jail and the other half not authorized to work. Poor thing.

He's gay? And he didn't stab him to death.

Looks like Tunisia got added fairly recently too which we may explain the presence of that guy. Still The Netherlands must have rather loose rules to have consider Tunisia has unsafe

I think I brainfarted and mixed up the two

But I did think asylum could not be granted for people being endangered for their society, I thought it was reserved to people fleeing wars, but I was wrong ! (although it may depend on which countries, the Netherlands grants asylum to people fearing death penalty, which the Iranian gay could face so)

You're so right. Iran's LGBT human rights are absolutely amazing. Sweden, Netherlands, Canada, etc. could learn a thing or two from Iran tbh.

Well Tunisia has the highest number of ISIS fighters, so maybe they all left the country
