Otago Girls' High School, where Huda was attacked.

After 17-year-old Huda Al-Jamaa was brutally attacked by 3 school girls at Otago Girls' High School, New Zealand, activists rushed to demand that her attackers face retribution for their vicious aggression.

The petition on Change.org, which gathered over 83,000 signatures, was in demand for justice for Huda, with celebrities like Bella Hadid and athlete Sonny Bill Williams endorsing it.

In the most recent update, the school expelled two of the three attackers, sending the third to counseling.

Furthermore, the attackers were referred to Youth Aid, which is a specialist police force in New Zealand police that works with children and minors who may be at risk of involvement in future crime. The attackers, through this referral, will be held accountable.

The school, according to the petition, has also apologized to Huda and her family through a message sent out to parents.

My culture, my religion

"My hijab... is my culture and my religion. My hijab is everything for me and I love my hijab and those other girls love their hijabs," Huda said.

This is not the first time Huda experienced violent attacks against her being and culture. She had repeatedly been flipped off and called a "terrorist" by other students.

The girls beat her on the head so aggressively that she had to be admitted to the hospital for a concussion, making school attendance and learning difficult.

However, with social pressure, police were able to take action and make statements.

"Violence or threatening behavior including any involving hate, hostility, or prejudice regarding race, faith, sexual orientation, gender identity, disability, or age is not acceptable," the police stated.
