Muslims in Wales are living in "immense fear" of backlashes,

:00:55.:00:57.

following the Paris terrorist attacks.

:00:58.:00:58.

That's according to a senior figure at the Muslim Council of Wales.

:00:59.:01:01.

Tonight more than 100 people gathered outside the National

:01:02.:01:03.

Assembly for a vigil for those who died as Nicola Smith reports.

:01:04.:01:06.

We don't have to be afraid because of terrorism. The colours of the

:01:07.:02:12.

trucker Law shone brightly once more on famous buildings and monuments.

:02:13.:02:15.

Amongst the Muslim community, there is now a growing sense of fear. This

:02:16.:02:19.

person from the Muslim Council of Wales says she condemned the attacks

:02:20.:02:22.

would raise concerns about a potential backlash. Personally, I

:02:23.:02:26.

have faced verbal and sometimes physical abuses. I don't know what

:02:27.:02:33.

life is like without Islamophobia. I'm a professional scientist working

:02:34.:02:36.

in a local hospital and sometimes patients around the CDs abuses.

:02:37.:02:38.

Maybe we dress differently and have different practices but we are human

:02:39.:02:40.

beings. We share our universal values. There were hardly any people

:02:41.:02:52.

on the streets. The friends console to Wales says

:02:53.:02:55.

she has been over one and by messages of support. I have found

:02:56.:02:59.

more than 100 messages within four hours yesterday morning, from people

:03:00.:03:07.

from all strands of Wales, MPs, AM 's, representatives of the religious

:03:08.:03:12.

communities. It has been really comforting to feel solidarity and

:03:13.:03:17.

support in such hard times. The Muslim Council for Wales says there

:03:18.:03:19.

is already a positive relationship between them, the Welsh government

:03:20.:03:23.

and the police. But they say more can and should be done to ensure a

:03:24.:03:28.

greater understanding and tolerance of different cultures here.

:03:29.:03:30.

The rest of the day's news now and two men have been charged with

:03:31.:03:33.

murder, following the discovery of human

:03:34.:03:37.

Police were called to Pleasant View in the Felinfoel area on Tuesday

:03:38.:03:42.

45-year-old Phillip Hudson Jones and 20-year-old Adrian Iwanowski

:03:43.:03:45.

will appear at Llanelli Magistrates Court tomorrow.

:03:46.:03:50.

Three other people have been charged with assisting an offender.

:03:51.:03:54.

Police are appealing for witnesses after two people were seriously

:03:55.:03:57.

injured when a car crashed into six parked cars in the Rhondda.

:03:58.:04:01.

It happened just before eight o'clock this morning in Trealaw.

:04:02.:04:04.

Hundreds of homes have been without power, while roads

:04:05.:04:11.

and trains have been affected by flooding in parts of Wales.

:04:12.:04:14.

This was the scene in Llanuwchllyn in Gwynedd earlier, where flooded

:04:15.:04:17.

300 households suffered power cuts around Newtown and Welshpool

:04:18.:04:23.

Rugby and there were wins for two Welsh sides in European competition.

:04:24.:04:32.

In the Champions' Cup, the Ospreys began their campaign with a 25-13

:04:33.:04:35.

win over Exeter at the Liberty Stadium, thanks in part to 20 points

:04:36.:04:39.

In the Challenge Cup, the Newport Gwent Dragons claimed

:04:40.:04:47.

a bonus point win against Sale, winning 30-12 at Rodney Parade.

:04:48.:04:52.

The Wales Rally GB was won earlier by world rally champion

:04:53.:04:54.

Wales's Elfyn Evans finished sixth, and seventh overall

:04:55.:04:59.

It was the third time in a row the Frenchman has won the race.

:05:00.:05:07.

However, afterwards he said he was in no mood to celebrate following

:05:08.:05:09.

If there is no point to celebrate today. We have this in mind. It has

:05:10.:05:25.

been a difficult weekend but we have to carry on. Like I said, this is

:05:26.:05:32.

the best way to finish it. Strong winds meant that spectators

:05:33.:05:34.

weren't allowed on the Great Orme in Llandudno for a stage earlier

:05:35.:05:36.

and looking at the weather overnight, it will be windy with

:05:37.:05:39.

occasional showers in many parts. Tomorrow will be brighter

:05:40.:05:43.

but with isolated showers. There's a full weather

:05:44.:05:45.

forecast coming up next. Thanks

:05:46.:05:51.

for your company this weekend.

:05:52.:05:54.
