Since a anti-Semitic connection is suspected, case lies with State protection. In meantime, an arrest warrant was issued against alleged offender. He’s in custody, and he didn’t “get down to business,” said a police spokesman.
The 21-year-old Israeli and a companion were on Tuesday evening in Berlin district Prenzlauer Berg on way, y wore Kippas-traditional Jewish headgear. They were insulted by three Arab-speaking men on street. One of men hit 21-year-old with a belt and tried to beat him with a bottle. Finally, attacker and his companions fled.

According to his own words, Israeli is not a Jew. “I am not Jewish, I am Israeli, I grew up in Israel in an Arab family,” he said in an interview of Deutsche Welle. A friend warned him that you are not safe in Germany if you wear a tipper. He did not believe that, man continued, so he had run with a Freud with Tippa through Berlin.
The attack had caused a stir. Chancellor Angela Merkel condemned deed. “With all hardship” must be done against anti-Semitism, she said. In a similar way, Bundestag vice-President Thomas Oppermann commented: “Judaism belongs to Germany – those who do not accept it have lost nothing here,” he said to new Osnabrücker Zeitung.
