In Styria, a Syrian father threatened his daughter (19 years old) because she refused to marry a stranger.

There are about 200 forced marriages at least every year in Austria. In the meantime, 15-year-old or even 13-year-old girls are also affected – and some of them are already living in Austria in the second or third generation. Now a 49-year-old Syrian asylum seeker from Aleppo has to stand trial. He had tried to marry his 19-year-old daughter. “Someone has proposed to you”, he is said to have told his daughter. But the daughter did not want the marriage, which the father presumably wanted to arrange for bridal wealth.Thereupon the father is said to have threatened his daughter: “If you do not agree to this, I will kill you. No one will ever find out about this. I’ll dismember you and throw you in the trash.” The daughter finally didn’t know what else to do and went to the police. The public prosecutor’s office in Graz has now charged the Syrian with attempted severe coercion. He faces up to five years in prison. The young woman now lives in a secret place without contact to her family.

It was a case that triggered off nationwide great horror: The 16-year-old Manuela K. had presumably been brutally murdered by her Syrian ex-boyfriend Yazan A. He now wants to legally defend himself against the maximum sentence imposed…

In the aftermath, increasingly gruesome details had become known: For Yazan A. (20 years old) is said to have strangled Manuela out of jealousy not only with a belt. He is also said to have raped her body before burying it in a heap of leaves in Wodica Park in Wiener Neustadt. The indictment at the time implied that he had vaginal intercourse with the dead woman and ejaculated on her corpse – the magazine Wochenblick reported on the disgusting details of the case in autumn.Hours after the crime, the police arrested the fugitive Syrian in Vienna, and the first trial followed in October.The suspect denied the killing at first, speaking of an accident in which the girl fell unhappily onto the park bench. Yazan A. did not say why he himself would not have called for help in such a case. Those who hoped for a repentant confession were disappointed. The court considered his guilt as proven, after hours of deliberation the jury’s verdict followed: 15 years imprisonment with the subsequent committal to an institution for mentally abnormal lawbreakers. At the beginning of the trial, the expert witness had certified a “personality development disorder with emotionally unstable, narcissistic and dissocial components”.His lawyer Andreas Reichenbach, however, lodged an immediate appeal against this ruling, and the second hearing will take place on the 26th of June before the Higher Regional Court (OLG) of Vienna. The legal counsel primarily argues that his client was allegedly blameless before the cruel act. Therefore, the “maximum penalty was disproportionate”.At that time the crime led to a broad condolence, about 500 people came to a funeral service despite the icy temperatures. The curious thing about it is that because political right wingers also mobilized to the commemoration, the Office for the Protection of the Constitution also attended the event. Despite its integrity – which applies to convictions of less than half a year or a penalty of 180 daily fine rate – Yazan A. was known to the police even before the crime. According to media reports, Yazan A. was already known to the authorities, and a procedure to withdraw his asylum status was pending.Already in 2017 and 2018, according to the newspaper Krone, a court sentenced him to fines for assault.

Students at the University of Washington are demanding that black students should not face difficult exams and time constraints because they are too “busy fighting for [their] rights to sit down and study”.

And the university thinks it is a good idea: It is currently advising professors to pass black students on the basis of race after an online petition gathered more than 26 000 signatures.

“You need to encourage and demand professors to accommodate their black students during this time. If UW truly understands our pain, UW will be a part of alleviating it,” the petition states.

Nicole McNichols, UW Psychology Professor told Campus Reform that she supported the move. “Obviously, I support the petition and absolutely believe the accommodations it requests should be honored by all faculty. Students need all of the support and compassion we can afford to give them right now.”

The email sent by McNichols to her students reads: “First, the remaining homework chapters are being put into review mode. Everyone will receive full points. Second, I have decided to drop everyone’s lowest exam score. This means that you may opt-out of taking Exam 3 if you just don’t feel up to it, (or if you [are] happy with your scores from exam 1 and 2).”

UW Senior Director of Media Relations Victor Balta said that all staff were asked “to consider that while we are together as a community, some are being affected more than others”.

The account of the Golden Dawn party in Greece and of the German neo-Nazi group Better Hanover, to mention only some profiles that Twitter has banned for violating the rules against hate speech, antisemitism and racism. Or the leader of the Nation of Islam, Louis Farrakhan, forced to cancel a tweet in which he compared the Jews to “termites”.But when the Supreme guide of the Islamic Republic of Iran, Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, compares Israeli Jews to “cancer”, Twitter glosses over it.

Khamenei published a poster that evokes the “final solution”. We see Jerusalem conquered by terrorists. There are no more Jews and the poster is dominated by the inscription: “Palestine will be free. Final solution”.

Requests were immediately made to ban Khamenei’s Twitter account. Requests that, as we know, were ignored. Khamenei has just “clarified” on Twitter that the expression “final solution” (coined by the Nazis in Wannsee) does not refer to the Jews, but “only” to Israel. And he concluded his new tweet with the textual words: “Eliminating Israel & it will happen”. And Iran, to ensure that “it will happen.” finances anti-Israeli terrorist groups with billions of dollars.

With a letter to the CEO of Twitter, Jack Dorsey, the new Israeli minister for Strategic affairs Orit Farkash-Hacohen asked for the “immediate suspension” of Khamenei’s account “for his constant publication of anti-Semitic and genocidal posts”. A year ago, a tweet from the Iranian leader raised doubts about Twitter’s terms of service. Khamenei had already tweeted: “Israel is a cancerous malignant tumor in the region of western Asia that must be removed and eradicated: it is possible and it will happen”.

Twitter rules dictate: “You cannot make specific threats of violence or desire serious physical harm, death or illness to an individual or group of people.” Yet, when Khamenei’s tweets are reported to the social direction, the answer is almost always the same: “There has been no violation of Twitter’s rules against abusive behavior”.

Twitter has just intervened to flag a tweet by Donald Trump against the vote by mail. At the bottom of the US president’s tweet, the social network called it “unsubstantiated”.

“These THUGS are dishonoring the memory of George Floyd, and I won’t let that happen,” Trump tweeted shortly before 1 a.m. Friday, adding, “Any difficulty and we will assume control but, when the looting starts, the shooting starts”. “This Tweet violated the Twitter Rules about glorifying violence,” read a gray box that then hided Trump’s tweet from public view unless a user clicks to see it.

Nothing like this has ever appeared on Khamenei’s tweets to signal his invocation for the destruction of the state of six million Israeli Jews.

We are in full algorithmic paradox.

The paradox is that the Global Times, a sort of British Pravda of the Chinese Communist Party, spreads anti-American propaganda on Twitter, which is banned in China, on how American soldiers brought Covid-19 to Wuhan last fall. Twitter, meanwhile, overshadowed the popular Zero Hedge website for publishing an article linking a Chinese scientist to the epidemic.

No less paradoxical than the announcement that Iranian President Hassan Rouhani has decided against the use in the country of any Israeli product, including hardware or software. Maybe Jack Dorsey could help them: no Twitter to those who use it to invoke a new “final solution of the Jewish problem”. Otherwise, you are just a liberal hypocrite.

Illegal migrants attacked another church on the Greek island of Lesvos recently, throwing stones through its windows. Additionally, the migrant camp at Nea Kavala on the Greek mainland has been quarantined after the Wuhan coronavirus (COVID-19) was discovered there.

The church, which is near the Moira migrant camp on Lesvos, is the latest in a string of churches in the region that have been attacked and desecrated by migrants, as previously reported by Voice of Europe. Makis Pavlellis, a local resident, said that “something very bad and dangerous has been going on for four months in the area,” according to a report by Greek City Times. “It looks organised and directed.”

Lesvos, which has a residential population of approximately 85,000, is currently hosting an estimated 25,000 illegal migrants, with half of them living at the Moira camp. Residents, while initially welcoming, have grown tired of their presence given the rise in incidents of disrespect, crime, and violence perpetrated by migrants.

Hungary has contributed $30,000 to help with restoring the damaged churches, as previously reported by Voice of Europe.

Meanwhile, in northern Greece, the migrant camp at Nea Kavala was quarantined yesterday after a pregnant woman tested positive for the Wuhan coronavirus, according to another report by Greek City Times. Greek health authorities are now in the process of testing all of the camp’s residents.

The mayor of nearby Peonia ordered the closing of six schools where migrant children have been attending classes as a precaution. The buildings are being disinfected.

Migrants were transferred to Nea Kavala in northern mainland Greece from camps on the islands in the Aegean recently. The move was carried out to relieve overcrowding in the camps, which were considered at high risk for an outbreak of the virus. Spreading the migrants out was intended to enable them to practice social distancing measures.

Children infected with coronavirus are being sent into the Belgian school system by the country’s asylum agency (Fedasil) despite protests from local politicians over fears it could lead to an outbreak.

The Belgian federal agency for the reception of asylum seekers refuses to have asylum seekers from the Koksijde asylum center tested for COVID-19, even though there is a coronavirus outbreak in the reception center.

Due to the coronavirus outbreak at the center, Koksijde’s mayor, Marc Vanden Bussche, decided that no one should leave the center before they have been tested. Now, it seems that despite the explicit ban, Fedasil still sends these migrant children from the asylum center to nearby schools. Now, two of those migrant children have already tested positive for COVID-19, KW reports.

A few months ago, it was decided that a disused air force base and a number of older houses in Koksijde would once again be turned into a reception center for asylum seekers despite protests from the town.

Due to the coronavirus crisis, the municipality asked Belgium’s asylum agency to postpone the opening of the center, but that was not an option for Fedasil. Not long after the reopening, it turned out that there was a coronavirus outbreak in the facility.

“Because I wanted to avoid further spread of the coronavirus, it has been decided that no resident should leave the reception center until they have been tested for COVID-19,” Koksijde’s mayor Marc Vanden Bussche to KW.

“Now, it has become clear that Fedasil has sent children to our schools behind my back. Four children went to schools in Oostende, one child to the municipal school in Koksijde, and one child to the municipal school in Oostduinkerke. Fortunately, the director notified me. Two of the children tested positive for the coronavirus! I can’t imagine the consequences if we had admitted those children to school.”

Currently, the center still registers coronavirus cases, but Fedasil still refuses to have asylum seekers tested.

“It is unbelievable that Fedasil does not understand why it is so important that all residents of the center get tested,” said Koksijde’s mayor.

“In the asylum center, people have already tested positive for COVID-19, and it makes sense that I ask that everyone gets tested, especially when they want to send children to our schools. But Fedasil perceives that as a form of discrimination,” he said.

Vanden Bussche says he is fed up with Fedasil’s stubborn and arrogant attitude.

“I am concerned that Fedasil continues to deny that there could be a problem and that they do not respect the mayor’s decision. My only goal is to keep the center coronavirus-free,” said the town’s mayor.

“The municipality even proposed to pay for all coronavirus tests. I am now waiting for a response from public health authorities, but if this is not resolved soon, I will go to court. In the meantime, there will be stricter police supervision at the reception center.”

Beligum was recently criticized for a decision it made in 2015 to destroy 63 million medical masks to make room for migrants in a storage facility during the height of the migrant crisis. Now, critics are saying the country could have highly benefited from those supply of masks during the outbreak of the coronavirus in Europe.

It’s Wednesday evening, shortly after 8 pm: a fierce argument breaks out on the suburban train S3 from Basel to Olten. According to the Baselbieter police, the two people have only verbally argued the dispute at first.

However, as time goes by, the dispute becomes more and more intense. The skirmish escalates shortly at the Frenkendorf stop. Suddenly one of the opponents pulls out a knife and stabs the victim several times.

When the suburban train stops in Frenkendorf, the perpetrator flees with a buddy in an unknown direction. The severely injured victim remains on the train until Liestal. There he is supported by other passengers until the ambulance arrives. The man had to be taken to hospital with several stab wounds.

The suspected perpetrator, a 21-year-old Somali, as well as his 18-year-old buddy from Ethiopia, were caught near the Frenkendorf train station. Criminal proceedings have been initiated by the responsible authorities.

Two migrants of unknown origin entered the St. Alexander Nevsky church in the Serbian capital Belgrade on Sunday and then robbed several attendants of the liturgy of their money and mobile phones. Those attending the church service managed to catch one of the thieves and hand him over to police to the scene, but the other got away.

“There were two of them, they broke into the church during the liturgy, which was in progress, and they stole two purses, and three mobile phones,” Vajo Jović, the elder of the Serbian Orthodox Church, told Serbian news site nova.rs.

“Upon entering the temple, they split up on two sides, and the people, seeing what was happening, managed to catch one of them and take away his mobile phones and the money he stole. The other managed to escape, he took two purses, in one there were 3,500 dinars, while in the other there were 18,000, which was the entire pension of one woman,” Jović said.

Jović expressed outrage over a robbery that occurred in a house of worship.

“We handed that young man over to the police, while the other managed to escape,” Jović said. “This is an insult. Isn’t anything sacred to people,, such as the liturgy? Terrible.”

In January this year, Greece relocated to the mainland several thousand migrants crammed on its Mediterranean Island near the Turkish coast. While the onset of the coronavirus pandemic has kept them in Greece, the country has reopened its asylum office in the second half of May, leading to an increase of the migrants seeking to reach Western Europe via the Balkans migration route.

Although there have been a number of attacks on churches by migrants in recent times, outright robberies of parishioners appears to be a new escalation.

According to the latest update of the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees (UNHCR), there are currently 8,052 migrants in Serbia, the majority of them in 19 refugee centers across the country. Their stated countries of origin are Afghanistan, Syria, Pakistan, Bangladesh, Iraq, Iran, Morocco and Palestine. The Serbian government lifted all its coronavirus-related movement restrictions on May 14 and the migrants now have freedom of movement on the territory of the country.

In compliance with a recent verdict of the European Court of Justice, Hungary has closed both its transit zones at Röszke and Tompa on its border with Serbia and migrants can only apply for asylum at the Belgrade consulate.

Two men aged 33 and 34 years jointly hit a 23-year-old and his 18-year-old female companion at the Bad Cannstatt train station on Saturday evening at about 11:00 pm. According to the current state of investigation, the 33-year-old Iraqi and the 34-year-old Moroccan suspects got into an argument with the 23-year-old on platform 3 of the Cannstatt station, as one of the men had probably previously harassed the female companion of the later victim.When the 23-year-old wanted to stop this behaviour, one of the two perpetrators apparently punched him in the face several times with his fist. Afterwards, they are said to have pushed the young man several times, so that he almost fell against a suburban train that was departing at the same time.When the female companion tried to stop the alcoholized attackers, it is said that she too was hit in the face several times. One of the suspects apparently then took a key in his hand and attacked the victim again. When several previously uninvolved travelers finally separated the men, the 33-year-old fled, but was temporarily arrested by a patrol of the state police in the vicinity. Alarmed rescue teams treated the two victims on site as outpatients.The 23-year-old suffered minor injuries to his hand and face. His female companion felt severe pain in her jaw due to the incident. The men, who live in Stuttgart and in the Esslingen district, must now expect a criminal complaint on suspicion of dangerous bodily injury. Witnesses of the incident are asked to report to the federal police by calling +49711870350.
