Shock in France! In the north of the country, a man stabbed a waiter in a restaurant after the latter asked him to wear a face mask. According to the police, a 29-year-old Afghan was arrested on Wednesday on suspicion of the crime. The 30-year-old waiter suffered a severe chest injury in the incident in Le Havre in Normandy. His life is not in danger, however, according to the police.The perpetrator had entered the restaurant located on the beach in a state of drunkenness and without a mask. After the waiter had asked him to wear a face mask, the 29-year-old first left the restaurant, but then returned and stabbed the waiter in the chest with a knife.

According to police reports, an off-duty policeman who was in the restaurant intervened and was slightly injured. The suspect was arrested by other police officers as he left the restaurant.

In France, the use of face masks is compulsory in restaurants, bars and cafés to protect against the coronavirus. New infections with the virus have recently increased significantly in the country.

Three months after a gruesome bloody deed in a Freiberg prefabricated high-rise, the public prosecutor’s office has now brought charges against an Afghan (39 years old).

The asylum seeker is accused of having executed his wife by stabbing her in the chest several times in the presence of their children. However, the alleged killer claims that “his wife inflicted the fatal injuries on herself”, according to public prosecutor Ingrid Burghardt.Obviously an assertion of protection. Burghardt: This statement is however disproved due to the extensive investigations, in particular the witness statements from the direct family environment as well as the forensic medical reports.The Afghan man is said to have had a violent argument with his wife in her apartment in a prefabricated apartment on the Straße der Einheit on the evening of May 19. The man pulled out a knife, stabbed her again and again.

“Around 9:15 p.m. I heard loud, panicky screams from a woman,” a neighbor told the tabloid BILD the day after the bloody deed. “Then a man’s voice and shortly afterwards terrible cries of her children in the stairwell. Another neighbor added at the time: “I immediately noticed that something was wrong and immediately called 911.

The police arrested the man. He was remanded in custody. The public prosecutor’s office now brought charges. Why the charge is solely manslaughter (and not murder) will be explained at trial. The trial will probably take place at the Chemnitz Regional Court starting in November.

A traveller to Eastern Europe can visit the sites of once-famous yeshivas like Slobodka, Kelm, Volozhin Telze and Ponevech and mourn at seeing buildings that once echoed with Talmudic study and which are now either empty ruins or have been transformed into community centers or shops.

Those yeshivas, however, abandoned because of the Holocaust and prior periods of persecution, and the shuls burned to the ground by Nazis and their cohorts, have been reborn in Israel (and the USA)..Today, the sound of Torah echoes from thousands of voices, more than there ever were in the renowned European yeshivas.

One cannot say the same about what is happening to Christianity in Europe, with France at the head. The worshipers are no more, and now it is the turn of the buildings.

“Should we abandon the churches of our villages, victims of de-Christianization?”, asks Stéphane Bern, commissioned by Emmanuel Macron to protect French cultural heritage, in a new essay for La Reveue des deux mondes.

On its website, the Patrice Besse real estate agency, which specializes in historic buildings, lists thirty churches currently for sale. Per square meter, desecrated churches are the cheapest lots in the country.

In Berry, a 12th-century Romanesque church is on sale for 150,000 euros. In Granville, the church of Saint Paul is on sale in the form of a lease for €30,000, “agency fees included”. In Paris, the church of Saint Rita, built in 1900, was sold to real estate developer Thierry Mainguet.

Since 2000, fifty churches have not had the luck of Santa Rita and have been destroyed. As in Finistère, the Notre-Dame de Gwel-Mor chapel in Morgat, of which not even the stained glass windows have been saved. The Goélands chapel in Saint-Jean-de-Monts was razed to the ground to make it a residential complex.

Meanwhile, for the first time in its history, no cardinal in office will sit in France, now that Archbishops emeritus Vingt-Trois (Paris), Barbarin (Lyon) and Ricard (Bordeaux) have joined the cohort of retirees.

“Should we perhaps remember that the chairs of Rouen, Toulouse, Lille or Rennes, fifty years ago, were occupied by cardinals?”, wrote Hadrein Desuin in Causeur.

This is the fate of Christianity in France in 2020: The chapel of the Poor Clares in Rennes becomes a gym, the church of Saint-Christophe in Meaux a lingerie shop, the church of Angers is bought by former footballer Steve Savidan to make it a nightclub, the chapel of the convent of Charity-Notre-Dame becomes an Axa agency, the church of Saint-Jean-de-la-Rive in Graulhet becomes a mosque, the church of Saint-Christophe de Meaux is transformed into a restaurant, a hotel in Poitiers, a nightclub in Angers, a shop in Nantes, a cultural center in Tourcoing, a concert hall in Hirson … it goes on.

In Rouen, where Father Jacques Hamel was killed by two Islamic fundamentalists a year ago during the morning mass, the conversion of four churches is underway, two of which suffered damage during the French Revolution: Saint-Pierre-du-Chatel, bombed in 1944, will become La Métropolitaine, a luxury restaurant and hotel rooms; Sainte-Croix-des-Pelletiers will welcome the Bekmiettes café, while the Saint-Nicaise church, classified as a historical monument, will become the Ragnar brewery.

Le Monde: “Five churches transformed into hotels – to sleep like a Pope”.

Marcel Proust, the greatest French writer of the XX century, already realized what was at stake in 1904, when he wrote in Le Figaro: “Suppose for a moment that Catholicism had been dead for centuries, that the traditions of its worship had been lost. Only the unspeaking and forlorn cathedrals remain; they have become unintelligible yet remain admirable”.

We don’t suppose anymore, now we know it. We know that another religion’s minarets rise in the French skies.

A Czech court Ústí nad Labem sent an African man to prison for raping a minor girl in the Litoměřice region for four years after expanding his original two-year sentence, with the court upholding the public prosecutor’s appeal.

The court also decided that institutional treatment was necessary. The judgment is now final, only an appeal can be lodged against it.

“It is indisputable that the act in question was committed as described and proven,” said Judge Roman Dobeš. The man was convicted of rape and theft. According to the court, the perpetrator is criminally liable, even if he committed the act in a state of reduced sanity.

Defense lawyer Vlastimil Beránek stated after the verdict that he would consult with his client on the appeal. Prosecutor Andrea Janáková declined to comment on the decision.

Regional court spokesman Jiří Barč told reporters that the prison facility would decide when Abdallah Ibrahim Diallo would receive institutional treatment. It is not yet clear whether the man will first serve his sentence or start treatment.

The man could have been sentenced to imprisonment from two to 10 years. According to the Court of Appeal, the two-year sentence seemed disproportionately lenient given that the act was committed by a man against a girl who was not 16 yet and had no previous sexual experience.

The hearing took place on Monday under strict security measures. Members and supporters of the radical Workers’ Party of Social Justice came to see the trial in the morning. They left the courthouse during the day.

The foreigner spoke in court but his comments were indecipherable as he communicated in French and talked at length about the books he had received in prison. He also began talking about his previous indictment and a verdict of the Litoměřice court. After the verdict was handed down, his statement was again incomprehensible and the chairman of the senate had him removed from the court.

According to the judge, deportation was also an option “however, this is not possible because the nationality of the defendant has not yet been determined.”

The convict unsuccessfully applied for asylum in Germany where he was convicted three times and denied asylum in 2017.

On June 18, on the road near the village of Lukavec, he grabbed a minor by the shoulder from behind, threw her into the grass, and began kissing her. Although she defended herself, he performed unprotected intercourse on her and stole her cell phone as she left. The girl was 15 years old at the time of the crime.

Abdallah Ibrahim Diallo said in court that he did not remember the act.

The Zurich High Court sentenced a 34-year-old Syrian today, Tuesday, to eight years in prison and a deportation from the country for a period of 15 years. One morning, the man suddenly stood in the apartment of a woman he did not know and raped her.

The 34-year-old surprisingly made a full confession in the high court, although he had always stressed that the student was an acquaintance of his and was making a big deal out of the matter.

On Tuesday, however, he read a statement in which he asked the raped student for forgiveness. “I am very sorry that I hurt her body and her soul.” He would do anything to make her feel better.

The high court reduced the first-instance sentence by one year. Last year, the Zurich District Court had sentenced him to nine years imprisonment and 15 years expulsion from the country.

On the morning in question, in September 2018, the female student was standing naked in the bathroom of her apartment, brushing her teeth. Suddenly, a complete stranger opened the unlocked door of her apartment and made his way towards her. Without saying much, he tried to kiss her and pressed her onto the bathtub.

At first she was able to break free. But before she could run out of the apartment, he dragged her into the bedroom, where he strangled and raped her.

The inhabitants of a village with 2000 inhabitants in the Bitterfeld district of Saxony-Anhalt are confronted with a strange picture almost daily. When the 19-year-old Syrian Ayman N. wants to shop in the village, four plain-clothes policemen with two vehicles follow him in a few meters distance. He is not allowed to leave his accommodation further than the supermarket anyway. This is also controlled by an electronic anklet on his leg.Since 2017 this happens. According to information from the newspaper Volksstimme, 95,000 man-hours are already spent on guarding. At an hourly fee of 52 euros per official, this amounts to almost five million euros. Vehicle costs or other material resources are not yet included. Currently, four men per shift are to be deployed for surveillance, which means twelve officers per day. Most of them arrive from Magdeburg. Reason for the expense: The young man is classified as an Islamist dangerous man and is waiting for the continuation of his trial before the Berlin Court of Appeal.In August 2017, the Regional Court of Halle had opened the trial for the ” attempt to commit a serious act of violence that endangers the state”. The IS sympathizer, who had come as an unaccompanied minor refugee in the fall of 2015, lived in the Osternienburger Land region until January 2017 and made contact with like-minded people on the Internet. According to the indictment, he had had a construction manual for the manufacture of an AK 47 assault rifle (Kalashnikov) sent to him and is said to have asked in a chat room where to obtain weapons and how to make an explosive belt. The Syrian also claimed to an undercover intelligence officer that he was planning “something major”. There was talk of an attack in Berlin.After the third non-public hearing day in September 2017, the Regional Court declared itself no longer competent and referred the case to the Berlin Court of Appeal. The reason: There were new allegations regarding the membership of a foreign terrorist organization. However, the Berlin Superior Court also temporarily suspended the proceedings after the fourth day of the hearing in December. Court spokeswoman Lisa Jani: “Because follow-up investigations were still necessary.

In addition, the General Public Prosecutor’s Office in Naumburg is now responsible. Its spokesman Klaus Tewes confirms: “When the investigations can be completed is still open. The monitoring is a pure police measure for the prevention of danger.

The Ministry of the Interior does not want to comment on the case. The police unions are angry about the continuous operation. State head of the police union (GdP), Uwe Bachmann, speaks of an “extremely unfortunate matter”. His colleague from the Association of German CID Officers, Peter Meissner: “We can’t watch him forever.
