'It is heartbreaking to see this chapter end in such a tragic way. No matter our skin color or background, we all share the same goal: to make a living, provide for our families, and offer a space where people can enjoy their time together.
A fundraiser has been launched to support the family who's restaurant was destroyed in a racist arson attack on Wednesday.
It said: "It is with a heavy heart that we announce the closure of our beloved pub and restaurant. This journey, filled with countless memories, has come to an unexpected end. Our establishment, once a place of joy and community, has fallen victim to a devastating act of organised hate. "As a young Nepalese-British individual, born into a Hindu family, raised and educated in Belfast, I never imagined that my skin color and religion would make us a target for such a hateful act. My sole intention was to run a business, provide jobs, and make a modest living. Unfortunately, the reality we faced was beyond anything I could have imagined.
Speaking to Belfast Live, he said: "I grew up with Abjan who is a very good friend with us both going to school together and it is devastating to see what has happened to him and his restaurant.
