Hampshire police said officers are carrying out reassurance patrols near the Madani Academy in Landport after the hate crime.

It comes after the head was seen on CCTV being cable-tied to the gates last Wednesday evening. Teachers, parents and pupils were horrified to discover the head as they arrived to the school on Thursday morning at 8.30am.
