A 22-year-old boy with right-wing views in Germany was sentenced to prison for attempting to set fire to a synagogue in Bavaria. This was reported by Photograph.
A drunk teenager broke the window of a synagogue in Ermreuth on the night of January 1, 2023. He then tried to light the fireworks to throw inside, but the fireworks did not light. As stated, there was no one in the building at that time.
The hooligan was detained and charged with attempted aggravated arson and damage to the property of others. The decision about the young man was made in May last year. Although he was later sentenced to 2 years and 6 months in prison, the prosecution requested that the defendant be sentenced to 3 years in prison. After the decision was announced, the defendant appealed.
A district court recently reviewed the decision and upheld the earlier decision. At the hearing, the defendant admitted that he committed the crime and admitted that he adhered to extreme right-wing views.
Senior prosecutor Andreas Frank, who serves as the central commissioner responsible for the fight against anti-Semitism in the Bavarian courts, emphasized in his conclusion that “the defendant acted in a far-right and anti-Semitic manner.”
previously Russian was detained for six years to prepare to set fire to the military registration and enlistment office.
