A number of Cuzist students today attacked a Jewish merchant from Botachany, by the name of Baral who had been travelling with them on the express train from Bucharest. The students first beat him and when he protested they threw him from the train while it was going at full speed. Injured and badly battered Baral managed to reach the Marasheshtay station where he asked the police commissioner to take up the matter. The latter refused and also declined to even make a note of the case. The newspaper “Dimeneaza” demands the intervention of the Home Secretary in the matter.
