3 Hungarians Convicted for Anti-Semitic Incident at Jewish Congress

Acccosted Jews During WJC Plenary Meeting

Budapest — A Hungarian court convicted three young men who accosted Jews in Budapest during the World Jewish Congress general assembly.
In an expedited court procedure on May 9, one of the men, identified by the Hungarian news site Hir24 as Gabor M., was sentenced to three years in jail and the other two, Gabor E. and David V., were each handed a suspended sentence of two years. Gabor M. has appealed the verdict and his trial continues, according to the news site.

The Hir24 report did not say what charges were brought against the men, but according to Kossuth Radio they were arrested on suspicion that they intended to physically assault the Jewish visitors.
