In short: A man who declared himself as "far right" allegedly threw abuse and punches at a dinner run by a Muslim community in Ballarat.

A Ballarat man who was at the dinner says the incident has left his children too traumatised to sleep in their own beds.

What's next? Police say the man was told to move on and no charges have been laid.
