Since the internet, a form of violence has been created known
As happy slapping. Happy slapping is considereda fad in which
someone assaults an unwitting victim while others record the assault.
Though the name usually refers to relatively minoracts of violence

murder, rape, and sexualassault have been classifiedas "happy
slapping" by the media. It Is seen as entertainment for many young
people who take part in these videos.

fun'.Muhammad Ali Ahmad, 26, of Whalley Range, Blackburn, is on trial

and Ilyas Iqbal, 23, of Percival Street.Ahmad, a white man formerly
known as Paul Cryer, was arrested last summer after the court was

discovered the film, 'The Blackburn Resistance', which the prosecution
