An 11-year-old girl who was allegedly stabbed in Leicester Square in London on Monday is an Australian. The Department of Foreign Affairs and Trade confirmed it is providing consular assistance to two Australians injured in London.
“Owing to our privacy obligations we cannot provide further comment,” a DFAT spokesperson said. The girl’s injuries while serious, were not life-threatening. She was reportedly visiting the busy tourist area with her 34-year-old mother at the time of the random attack.
The young girl who was seriously injured in the alleged attack is believed to be from NSW.
A 32-year-old man, Ioan Pintaru, appeared in a London court charged with attempted murder over the latest stabbing, which shocked the busy tourist center of Leicester Square on Monday, local time. Westminster Magistrates’ Court heard that Mr Pintaru, who spoke through a translator, was a Romanian citizen with no fixed address.
