But are they really racially motivated attacks or is this a racial subdivision of a wider crime problem in the Melbourne area?

Wasn't he the one who actually set himself on fire and then made up the story?

Can't comment on the others because I don't know the facts behind your headlines. I prefer true facts to unsubstantiated media hype. Let me know when you have the true confirmed facts of all of those stories.

I don't know about the others, but this particular "attack" was a fraud. He lied about the whole thing:
An Indian man who told police he was set on fire by a group of men in Essendon, in Melbourne's north-west, has faced an out-of-sessions court hearing charged with making a false report to police.

Jaspreet Singh told police he was approached by four men and set on fire as he moved his car in Slater Street on January 8. Police claim the 29-year-old accidentally set himself on fire while trying to set his car on fire.

Singh was treated for burns to 15 per cent of his body. He will return to court in March to face charges of making a false report to police and criminal damage with a view to gain financial advantage.
(Source).

Then we have the Indians murdering Indians:
A third person has been charged with murder over the death of an Indian man in southern New South Wales last month.

Ranjodh Singh's body was found on the side of the road in Willbriggie, near Griffith in late December. It was badly burnt.

Yesterday, a man and woman, were arrested at San Souci in Sydney's south and charged with murder. Gurpreet Singh, 23, and his 20-year-old wife Harpreet Bhullar faced Sutherland Local Court separately today.

Gurpreet Singh seemed calm as he sat in the dock, but his wife was visibly upset. The couple did not apply for bail and will remain behind bars until their next court appearance next month.

Their lawyer requested a Punjabi interpreter.
(Source).
Police launched a massive manhunt on Wednesday for 23-year-old Chamanjot Singh, who was last seen leaving the couple's Westmead home on Tuesday night. They discovered the body of his 29-year-old Indian-born wife when checking reports of a domestic dispute at the Houison St home late on Tuesday. NSW Police originally thought Singh was still in the Sydney area, but might travel interstate.

"A 23-year-old man was arrested this afternoon as he was alighting from a bus at Melbourne's Spencer Street Station by Victoria Police," police said in a statement on Wednesday night. "It is expected he will be formally charged with murder prior to his extradition hearing."
(Source).

Nitin Garg (Indian student) was stabbed to death, but his attacker has not been identified; we don't know if he was murdered by a white Australian, a fellow Indian or someone else.

While some of the attacks may have been racially motivated, I suspect that most of them were simply the result of vulnerable students being in the wrong place at the wrong time.

And after Police investigation, it was discovered that said Indian man set fire to himself after setting fire to his own car in an attempt to commit insurance fraud. He was arrested and charged by Police.

The fact is Inidans do not get attacked any more then anyone else in Australia , the only exception is where Indians work in dangerous jobs like Taxi drivers. But when an Indian is assualted its always headline news in India and portrayed as a racist attack often even when race has nothing to do with it.

Unfortunately their attitude will back fire spectacularly at some point and they will cause some real racism against the Indian nation.
