Russia - Ulyanovsk court sentences antisemitic vandals

A court in Ulyanovsk , Russia sentenced four local residents to prison and fines after finding them guilty of painting antisemitic death threats on the building of the Jewish Community Center. The four were convicted of illegal hate speech after an expert study found that the graffiti was "an open call to kill Jews." The defendants were sentenced to three years in prison, one year in prison, and 84 and 80 hours of community service, respectively.
