A RELIGIOUS temple in Carrum Downs was vandalised earlier this month.
Frankston Crime Investigation Unit detectives believe the temple was vandalised with graffiti sometime overnight between 15 January and 16 January. In a statement, Victoria Police said “it is believed the damage includes graffiti slogans of a political nature.”
“Victoria Police takes any political or racially motivated crime seriously, including in the form of graffiti, and we encourage anyone with information about this type of activity to report it to police,” Victoria Police said. “Prejudice-motivated crime undermines community harmony, reduces people’s perception of safety and makes people feel isolated.”
Anyone with information on the incident can contact Crime Stoppers on 1800 333 000 or at www.crimestoppersvic.com.au to assist with the investigation.
