Three young men belonging to the rightist National Vanguard Movement were beaten by a group of unidentified persons today while they were entering the Foreign Press Club here to hand out to foreign newspapermen a resolution against the Eichmann trial now being held in Jerusalem.
The rightist group included a Tunisian, Mohammed Misellati and Bruno Di Luia, already known to police for having insulted and molested a Jewish salesgirl, Leda Efrati, during a recent neo-fascist incident. When police arrived to investigate the assailants had already fled.
