A person in a silver SUV — their head entirely covered by a white balaclava — drove by the barricade at Commercial and Alameda streets, window down.

However, she said that organisations should be able to decide what their staff wear and that she asked people coming to her constituency surgeries to remove face coverings "whether it's a burka or a balaclava".

He said the boy approached Mr Kohli while wearing a balaclava, adding the elderly man had done nothing to deserve the attack that followed.

The man, wearing a black hoodie and balaclava, took her on foot to York Place where he attacked her in a basement storage area.

Police said the suspects were all wearing balaclavas and dressed in dark clothing.
