BACON rashers were found strewn across Muslim prayer mats inside Bankstown hospital last week.
A visitor to the public Muslim prayer room discovered the meat on Thursday afternoon.
Clinical and forensic psychologist Hanan Dover posted a picture on her Facebook page with a scathing comment.
“Horrible. Some anonymous bigot thought it would be appropriate to offend Muslims by placing bacon rashers on Muslim prayer mats inside the public prayer room at Bankstown Hospital,” she wrote.
Bankstown Hospital acting general manager Linda Campbell said: “We are disappointed and we immediately arranged for the prayer mats to be professionally steam cleaned.
“We apologise for the offence caused and our staff have ensured that the prayer room is available for use.”
