Indictment: Arab youths attacked an orthodox man because he is a 'Jew'

An indictment was filed today (Sunday) at the Jerusalem Magistrate's Court against two underage Arab youths for assaulting a person who is visibly orthodox, just because he was Jewish. Jerusalem District Attorney's Office filed the charges against the youth, claiming that the attack occurred on racist grounds.

The indictment, which describes the sequence of events, indicates that last May, an orthodox driver was driving on the highway in the A-Tur neighborhood. One of the boys recognized him and said to his friend and another person that this is a Jew. "

Because of this, he called them to attack the vehicle. The three walked to the car, kicked him, and caused him damage.

Their punishment is up to ten years in prison.

The prosecution asked the court to arrest the defendants until the end of proceedings, or set conditions of release under custody matter. Since these defendants are underage we are unable to give any details of the indictment.
