The mum of a schoolgirl with autism has spoken out after her daughter was allegedly lured to a park and beaten unconscious.
Abbie Jarvis, from Glasgow, was left hospitalised for two days after she agreed to meet a friend from school at a park in the city on October 4.
When she arrived, she was set upon by a group of ten girls who filmed the brutal attack on their phones.

It is claimed that Abbie was punched numerous times in the face and knocked to the ground.
She also suffered multiple kicks to the head and was left covered in blood after the alleged attack.
Abbie's mum Angela said she had a 'bad feeling' that something was wrong after her daughter failed to respond to a text message.
She then received a phone call from Abbie and heard a girl screaming her name in the background before the call was cut off.
The mum-of-four rushed out to look for Abbie but later returned home to find her daughter covered in blood and slipping in and out of consciousness in the back of another parent's car.
The 43-year-old told the Record: "Abbie's friend's mum had driven her home, and when I arrived, she warned me it wasn't good. I went to the back of her car, and I saw Abbie lying there.
"She was covered in blood, falling in and out of consciousness. She couldn't even speak.
"She had a lump on her head that I still cannot even believe to this day was real because it was so big. She looked completely deformed."
Angela raced her daughter to the Royal Hospital for Children, where she was kept for two days.
The schoolgirl had a deep gash to her head that had to be glued together and was left with painful bruising across her skull and face.
Angela added: "When I got to the hospital, I went into survival mode. The doctor pulled me aside and said they would have to check if her skull was fractured.
"Abbie was covered in bruises all over her face.. I couldn't even touch her because she was in agony.
"It was horrific to see and it nearly broke me. Even now, I can't bring myself to think of her lying there during that beating and waiting for it to stop."
The Daily Records understands the teen has been granted bail on the condition she does not approach the victim.
Schoolgirl Abbie had been struggling at school for a number of months due to suffering from social anxiety.
After working with Child and Adolescent Mental Health Services (CAHMS) to rebuild her confidence, she changed schools in June, where she had met a new group of friends.
Angela says her terrified daughter has now completely regressed and is too scared to leave the house.
She added: "She keeps having nightmares about this girl chasing her. She doesn't want to walk out of the door.
"This has left her completely traumatised. There are spells where she is even struggling to pronounce her words properly and she is slurring them a lot.
"I am trying to get counselling put in place for her.
Abbie has such an amazing personality and she is a very loyal girl to her friends. I don't know why this happened to her."
A Police Scotland spokesperson said: "A 13-year-old girl has been arrested and charged following the alleged serious assault of a 12-year-old girl in Southdeen Avenue near Southdeen Park, Drumchapel, Glasgow, on Tuesday, October 4. She has been released on an Undertaking to appear at Glasgow Sheriff Court at a later date.
"A report will be submitted to the Procurator Fiscal and the Scottish Children's Reporters Administration for consideration."
