So why the media never used other names besides Muslims girls , bias much? In my country who are the biggest Muslim population in the world never used names such Christian girls, Hindus girls, Buddhist girls, atheist girls in the headlines news.

I understand your point, and, yeah, it does feel this way. News seem to only be about either "Muslim Person does stuff" or "Person does stuff", so its understandable why it looks so strange.
The problem is that in most cases (emphasis most, not all!) this is due to a direct connection, in this case the headscarf being the supposed reason of the supposed attack. Considering the Headscarf is seen as a part of the religion the connection to is pretty clear:
She claims that an attacker tried to push her onto the tracks because she is muslim, which the attacker supposedly figured out due to her wearing a headscarf that is mostly worn among muslims. Its an integral part of the story.
Also seriously, I know how people are feeling with trump, the close election in austria and the general wave of right extremism everywhere, but:
THIS
IS
NOT
HELPING!
For every made up incident like this there are a dozen serious ones that are dismissed because, apparently, this stuff is made up all the time.
Just... stop this. There are already record highs of actual and very real attacks diven by racism and bigotry in the US and the UK, no need to invent more.
