(Jewish Group) Man accused of beating Paris Jew while praising Allah sent to psychiatric review

(THIS IS THE JEWISH GROUP! RESPECT!!)

For the third time this year, French police sent to psychiatric evaluation a man who displayed violent behavior toward Jews.

The latest incident occurred on Tuesday in Paris’ 20th district, where a young Arab man hit a 69-year-old Jewish man wearing a kippah, pushed him to the ground and dragged him by his hair while shouting: “Alla hu akbar, long live Hitler, death to the Jews,” the National Bureau for Vigilance Against Anti-Semitism, or BNVCA, wrote in a statement Wednesday. The call in Arabic means “Allah is the greatest.”

Police apprehended the suspected assailant, the report said. But a police physician recommended transferring the suspect to a psychiatric institution for observation because he was in a “state of over excitement,” according to the information received by BNVCA.

The group said it “again deplores that an violent anti-Semite citing Islamism evades judicial treatment because he presents himself as having mental problems which should not and cannot explain or excuse his actions.” Such treatment is “absurd,” BNVCA said.

The victim suffered minor injuries to his head and filed a complaint for assault with police, BNVCA added. The assault came as the man was entering a kosher bakery.

In May, a man who shouted about Allah outside a Paris-region Jewish school and accused the people inside of killing children was sent to psychiatric observation.
