I'm looking for statistics on an urban riot in the U.K. in 2001. I
particularly want info on those particpating in the Bradford
riot that took place on July 7th 8th etc. What were their ethinicity,
religion, age range etc? All I can find is the rather generic term
'asian'rioters. I am also concerned about the quality of information.
There seems to be a lot of blame and name calling from 'far right'and
other groups so some kind of standing to the source would be
appreciated (eg govt info or council or a respected body etc). This is
the riot I am most interested in:

While not providing the statistics you request, this article by Paul
Mezaros of Bradford Trades Council, which appeared in Searchlight
Magazine, provides some background:
