Police are investigating after a Sky News interview with a local businessman in Nuneaton was disrupted by women shouting about rape.
Zahin, 32, was speaking to correspondent Shamaan Freeman-Powell about tensions in the community over asylum when the incident happened.
"You're trying to rape our kids," shouted one of the women. They were accompanied by children and one held a pint of lager.
"That's the issue with having youse [sic] in our country, you're raping our kids," one woman shouted.
The group of women also swore at the camera.
Zahin, who relocated to Nuneaton, Warwickshire, from Malawi when he was six years old, asked the women: "What you teaching them kids?"
He later said he believes he was targeted because the women assumed he was Muslim and added: "For them to accuse us of a crime, that's unfair, that is unjust."
"I love this town," he said.

A police spokesperson said: "We were aware of the incident prior to this footage being released, and it is currently being investigated by Warwickshire Police."
Nuneaton has become a flashpoint for anti-migrant unrest after two men, reported to be Afghan asylum seekers, were accused of sexually assaulting a 12-year-old girl.
A few years ago, the number of asylum seekers in Nuneaton was in the single digits, but the figures have since grown to 247 by June this year.
The latest figures show there are 19 asylum seekers per 10,000 residents, placing Nuneaton 87th in the country in terms of concentration.
