Jerusalem, Israel - Police Raid Charedi Printing Shop

Jerusalem, Israel - Police officers raided a printing house in Jerusalem’s Me’a Shearim neighborhood after it had distributed flyers with hate messages directed toward the parade organizers and police.

According to police, the printing house is owned by members of an extreme ultra-Orthodox sect that in the past few years carried out acts described by segments of the haredi community as “acts of terror.”
They have recently also waged a campaign against what they refer to as the ‘promiscuity’ on the haredi streets and the infiltration of ‘fashion’ that often times does not correspond with the strict dress codes in the community. The owner of the printing house, in his 30s, was detained for questioning.
“They busted into the structure and emptied it out,” he said, “They didn’t leave one flyer inside. What they couldn’t fit into the vehicles was thrown into a burning garbage can nearby,” a eyewitness said.
