Munich - Man sentenced for anti-Semitic slogans

A man who shouted anti-Semitic abuse on the day of the Hamas terrorist attack on Israel in Munich has been sentenced to eight months' probation for incitement to hatred. The verdict in the accelerated proceedings before the Munich district court on Thursday is legally binding. The trial is likely to have been one of the first of its kind in Germany.

On October 7 of this year, the Iraqi-born man had shouted anti-Semitic abuse from the balcony of his Munich apartment until the police arrived. The man resisted arrest and tried to flee. When he was caught, he spat and insulted the officers.

Since the terrorist attack on Israel on October 7, pro-Palestinian demonstrations have also been taking place on German streets, sometimes cheering on the Islamist Hamas.
