Two Men Arrested For Looting
And Descrating Synagogue
BY EDWIN EYTAN
PARIS [JTA] - Algiers
police said that two men
have been arrested and
remanded in custody on
charges of breaking into
that city’s last remaining
synagogue last month and
looting, desecrating and
damaging the house of
prayer. None of the looted
objects has been recovered.
The police investigation is
apparently continuing into
the crime which occurred on
Jan. 21 but was not
discovered until the follow-
ing day, a Sabbath. Accord-
ing to Algiers Rabbi Gilbert
Seror, the thieves made
off with silver candlesticks,
silk curtains from the
Tabernacle and every other
object of value. Torah
scrolls and prayer books
were found torn to shreds.
The police were alerted by
Marcel Said, president of
the Jewish community. He
also informed the Prime
Minister’s office and the
Ministry of Religious Af-
fairs of the break-in which is
a criminal offense under
Algerian law. The French
Embassy was informed as
well because many mem-
bers of the Jewish commun-
ity are French nationals.
Algiers police said they
were under strict orders to
break the case and arrest
all suspects. They said the
District Attorney told them
“It is intolerable that such a
acts could occur in our city.”
But Jewish sources here
said the incident was not
surprising in view of the
anti-Jewish climate they
say prevails in Algiers.
According to these sour-
ces, passers-by often throw
rocks at Jewish beggars
seeking alms near the
synagogue gate. There are
only about 350 Jews left in
Algiers and 1000 in the rest
of the country. They are
mainly elderly people who
decided to remain when
most Algerian Jews moved
en masse to France.
