• Date: Statement dated 26/04/2025; Incident date 17/12/2024;
• Received/Processed by me on 10 July 2025.
• Incident Type: Receipt of Formal Signed Witness Statement (from Shujah Gillani).
• Source: Shujah Gillani (Witness/Victim).
• Relates to My Log Entry: Log #46 (Threat to Stab) and Log #8 (Threats/Racist Abuse).
• Details of Witness Statement Content (Key Extracts):
  • Date of Incident: 17th December 2024, approx. 5:54 PM.
  • Location: Outside 2 Vaughan Gardens, Windsor, SL4 6JT.
  • Witness: Shujah Gillani, DOB 06/07/1968.
  • Perpetrator: Chris (from 1 Vaughan Gardens), described as "rushing aggressively," "agitated and possibly intoxicated."
  • Racist Abuse: The statement confirms Chris shouted racist slurs, specifically calling Mr. Gillani a "black bastard."
  • Threat to Life: Confirms Chris shouted that he was "going to stab him if he does not move his car."
  • Intimidation: Confirms Chris was "aggressively holding up a mobile phone or camera and sticking it towards my face through the driver's side window."
  • Corroboration of Bea's Presence: Confirms a woman, now known to be "Bea, also from 1 Vaughan Gardens, watching the entire incident from the window of their house... also holding a phone or camera and possibly taking photos or recording."
  • Impact on Witness: Mr. Gillani states he felt "extremely scared and shocked," "genuinely threatened by Chris's aggression, the racist abuse, and especially the direct threat to stab me," and "afraid for my physical safety."
  • Reason for Not Reporting at the Time: Crucially, the statement explains the delay in reporting: "I was genuinely in fear that Chris might actually carry out his threat of violence against me if I made a formal complaint then."
  • Ongoing Impact: States that because of the fear instilled by Chris's threats and behaviour, "I have not felt safe returning to visit Waseem at his home."
  • Confirms Police Report Reference: Notes his understanding that I reported the incident as a witness (Police Ref: TAA-18636-25-4343-IR).
• My Perception of Purpose & Impact:
  • This signed witness statement is irrefutable, independent corroboration of one of the most serious incidents of racist abuse and life-threatening threats I have experienced from my neighbours.
  • It completely destroys the credibility of Chris and Bea's denials to Abri Housing (as reported by Sue Sorce in Log #445).
  • It provides direct evidence of a racially aggravated public order offence and a direct threat to life, which Thames Valley Police have so far failed to act upon effectively.
  • It demonstrates the tangible harm caused by my neighbours' actions, as my friends are now too afraid to visit me, resulting in my social isolation.
  • The witness's stated fear of reprisal provides a powerful reason for the delay in him making a formal statement, countering any potential police argument that the incident wasn't serious.
