The former diversity officer for Goldsmiths' students' union has been handed a court summons after the police received a complaint of 'racially motivated' communication made over social media.
Bahar Mustufa was the elected welfare and diversity officer at the New Cross based students union.
The 28-year-old from Edmonton in Enfield has been summonsed to answer the charges of:
- Sending letter / communication / article conveying a threatening message between November 10 2014 and May 31 2015.
- Sending by public communication network an offensive / indecent / obscene / menacing message / matter between November 10 2014 and May 31 2015.
A spokesman for the Met Police said an investigation was launched by officers from Lewisham Community Safety Unit on May 7 after they received the complaint of racially motivated malicious communication.
During her time as welfare and diversity officer Mustafa became the centre of a media storm, after allegedly tweeting '#killallwhitemen'.
She is due to appear at Bromley Magistrates' Court on November 5.
