Student Mugged in the London Riots to have PSP replaced by SCEE

Over the last few days; we have all witnessed the atrocious conduct and violence that has swept London, as well as other major cities in the UK. Whether you’ve seen it all on the television, in the newspapers, the internet, or even in person, the riots are all people can talk about lately.

One of the most popular and disgusting images of the criminality that overwhelmed the England capital is of 20-year-old Malaysian Student, Ashraf Haziq. In this video posted to Youtube, a group of youths assist Haziq to his feet, after they see him on the floor with a nasty facial injury. Despite this seemingly aspiring portrayal of community spirit, two of the youths immediately start sifting through Haziq’s backpack, before confidently walk off with his PSP.

In response to the mugging, SCEE Marketing Director, Alan Duncan, has reached out to Haziq after seeing a Tumble page, entitled ‘Lets do something nice for Ashraf’.

Duncan said the company would “like to give Ashraf a new PSP and games.”

 If we can find out how to get it to him we’ll replace the PSP,

Duncan even went as far as requesting to be put in touch with the hospital where Haziq was treated with a broken jaw. His message was received and staff is processing the request.

Sony was also a victims of the London riots, after the Sony distribution centre in the Enfield area of London was set alight by looters. Sony confirmed that an investigation is currently ongoing into the incident.

We at Push-Start would like to personally praise Alan Duncan and the others at Sony for their wonderful act of charity, and hope that the individuals involved in this disgusting crime will be braught to justice.

We also wish Ashraf Haziq a speedy recovery.
