30-year-old Lahav Shapira, brother of the satirist Shahak Shapira was beaten in Berlin - probably because he is Jewish. Lahav was out with an acquaintance in Berlin-Mitte late on Friday evening.
There they met a 23- year-old fellow student. According to police, an argument developed on the street between Shapira and the other man, who was said to be representing pro-Palestinian positions. The investigation into the incident is ongoing, but police have identified the suspect.
