For assaulting a Jewish couple on the street, and subjecting them to anti-Semitic indignities, a Berlin ruffian named Motzkeit was sent to jail for three months by a local German court of appeal.
The chairman of the Berlin Community, Heinz Galinski, had filed a protest with Senator Dr. Kielinger, the head of the Berlin administration of justice, when the defendant got off with only a fine in an earlier trial, and the prosecutor also appealed.
