Eight British schoolboys have been arשrested for allegedly shouting anti-Semitic chants at their Jewish teacher.
The pupils, aged 15 and 16, were reportedly directing the chant at David Appleman, a technology teacher at Chauncy School in Ware, Hertfordshire.
The pupils, aged 15 and 16, were reportedly directing the chant at David Appleman, a technology teacher at Chauncy School in Ware, Hertfordshire.
Officers from the Hertfordshire Police arrested the boys at the school following a complaint by Appleman, who had seen the chants on a YouTube video.
Dennis O’Sullivan, the school’s head teacher, immediately criticized the police’s move, saying that the chants of “Yid Army” seen on YouTube were merely a copy of Tottenham Hotspur supporters’ affectionate chants at FA Premier League games.
