A Christian minister who has had heated arguments with Muslims on his 
TV Gospel show has been brutally attacked by three men who ripped off 
his cross and warned: 'If you go back to the studio, we'll break your legs.'

The Reverend Noble Samuel was driving to the studio when a car pulled 
over in front of him. A man got out and came over to ask him 
directions in Urdu.

Mr Samuel, based at Heston United Reformed Church, West London, said: 
'He put his hand into my window, which was half open, and grabbed my 
hair and opened the door.

Frightened: TV minister Noble Samuel

He started slapping my face and punching my neck. He was trying to 
smash my head on the steering wheel.

Then he grabbed my cross and pulled it off and it fell on the floor. 
He was swearing. The other two men came from the car and took my 
laptop and Bible.'

The Metropolitan Police are treating it as a 'faith hate' assault and 
are hunting three Asian men.

In spite of the attack, Mr Samuel went ahead with his hour-long live 
Asian Gospel Show on the Venus satellite channel from studios in 
Wembley, North London. During the show the Muslim station owner Tahir 
Ali came on air to condemn the attack.

Pakistan-born Mr Samuel, 48, who was educated by Christian 
missionaries and moved to Britain 15 years ago, said that over the 
past few weeks he has received phone-in calls from people identifying 
themselves as Muslims who challenged his views.

'They were having an argument with me,' he said. 'They were very 
aggressive in saying they did not agree with me. I said those are 
your views and these are my views.'

He said that he, his wife Louisa, 48, and his son Naveed, 19, now 
fear for their safety, and police have given them panic alarms. 'I am 
frightened and depressed,' he said. 'My show is not confrontational.'
