Earlier today we highlighted the sad death of Mushin Ahmed, a senior citizen, who passed away from his injuries after going to the mosque for Fajr prayers. Clearly a devout man, who would have thought his family would now be mourning his death.

We received the following tweet, shown above, from an account that stated,

“One less Muslim.”

This is the appalling, stomach churning response we have received from Twitter, the profit making social media company whose actions on tackling anti-Muslim hate leave a lot to be desired. At the heart of this response lies the problem. This response seems to show some automation or a severe lack of common sense by the individual working on this complaint. This is another epic Twitter fail!

Twitter’s response to the hate speech:
