France - Founder of black radical and anti-Semitic group sentenced to one month in prison
Kemi Seba, founder of a French black radical and anti-Semitic outlawed group calling itself "Tribu Ka", was sentenced to one month firm prison by a Paris court.
He was convicted for having posted anti-Semitic comments on his internet website in August 2006.
The 25-yar-old Seba, whose real name is Stellio Capochichi, announced his intention to appeal the sentence.
On its website, Seba said international institutions like the World Bank, the International Monetary Fund and the World Health Organization "are held by the Zionists who are imposing to Africa and its diaspora such extremely bad conditions that the Auschwitz concentration camp can appear as a paradise on earth."
In July 2006, Tribu Ka was banned by the French government and its website was later shut down after its members descended on a Paris Jewish quarter, wielding baseball bats and shouting anti-Semitic slogans.
Kemi Seba’s personal website was closed because, the judge said at the time, “it was marked with the hatred of Jews on every page".
