German given suspended sentence

for attack on Indians

Did you think only America had

problems?

Oschatz, Germany - A court Monday

handed down a six-month suspended

sentence to a 22-year-old German

accused of chasing and beating up

Indian nationals last year in the

town of Muegeln. The man was

convicted of incitement to racial

hatred for his role in the August 18

attack, which saw 50 men pursue

eight Indians across a street after

a brawl during a town festival.

The angry crowd yelled racist

slurs and tried to break into a

pizza parlour where the bruised

and battered Indians had taken

refuge before police arrived to

disperse the attackers.

Prosecutors had initially slapped

a fine of 2,625 euros (3,880 dollars)

on the man, but he appealed the

measure.

I guess Germany doesn't believe in protecting its citizens. Unbelievable.
