The family took this picture of the man, who they said racially abuse them during a shopping trip to Lynnmall. Photo: SuppliedA New Zealand-Palestinian family say they feel unsafe in public after one of them was shoved and told to "go back to your own country" by a stranger in an Auckland shopping mall. Saja Mahmoud, 17, said she was shopping with her mother Nadia Ali in Lynnmall this afternoon when they were approached by a middle-aged man. And then he just started shouting at us 'Go back to your country'," Saja said. The man then pushed Nadia, who was wearing a headscarf, with enough force to knock her off balance.
