As life returns to normality after last week's terror attack in Manchester, a young Afghani Muslim living in the British city has taken the internet by storm, with a video he posted of himself offering free hugs to passers-by. Baktash Noori, otherwise known as Bako, says that the social experiment was an exercise in trust. The video, currently trending in the UK involved him standing blindfolded in Manchester city centre, next to a placard which read 'I am a Muslim and I trust you. Do you trust me enough for a hug?' Bako spoke to 大象传媒 Newsday.
