Spanish police are reported to have arrested two men and a woman thought responsible for antisemitic vandalism in a village that was once called “Kill Jews”.
According to JTA, the suspects are alleged to have defaced the Sephardic memory centre at Castrillo de Mota Judios, “Camp Jews Hill”, and the town hall with graffiti such as Juden Raus, “Jews Out” over the past year.
They are also believed to have started fires after the village twinned with an Israeli town last year and to have scrawled graffiti on the walls of a synagogue near Madrid.
In December, the Mayor Lorenzo Rodriguez, called the perpetrators “cowardly, intolerant and ignorant people”.”
