Melbourne (UrduPoint / Pakistan Point News – 16th March, 2019) Australian Senator Fraser Anning was egged by a teenager during a press conference on Saturday after he tweeted against Muslim migrants.
The video of the teenager throwing an egg at the senator had gone viral on social media.
After throwing the egg, the senator smashed the teenager due to which he fell on the floor. The people present there then beat him up.
In his tweet on Friday, Fraser Anning had blamed Muslim immigration for the terrorist attack in New Zealand.
“Does anyone still dispute the link between Muslim immigration and violence?” the senator had written.
The teenager was then arrested by the police.
However, people are lauding the teenager for this act and has become the new Australian hero.

Here's what they are saying:
New Zealand was struck by two deadly attacks in Christchurch on Friday, with 49 people killed and another 20 seriously injured after gun assaults on mosques as Muslims worshipped.
During afternoon prayers on Friday, a gunman opened fire inside the Masjid al Noor mosque in central Christchurch, killing 41. Another seven were killed at a second mosque five kilometres away in suburban Linwood, three of them outside the building.
Australian national Brenton Harrison Tarrant was charged with murder over the fatal shootings in two mosques.
Tarrant had anti-Muslim and anti-migrant views and also expressed admiration for Norwegian mass killer Anders Breivik.
