France – A taxi driver arrested for threatening a family in Orly

“I’m not taking you, dirty Jew.” This is what a taxi driver would have said to a family at Orly airport (Val-de-Marne).

This 28-year-old man will be tried on May 6 by the Créteil criminal court for death threats and discrimination “because of religion” after these anti-Semitic remarks , the prosecution told AFP this Wednesday, confirming information of the Chained Duck .

The suspect also allegedly declared “twice” in French and Arabic, “a language that the victim understands”, “if I had taken you in my taxi, I would have slit your throat, you, your wife and your children”. added the public prosecutor.

The family was returning from Israel
The events occurred on October 11. The victim reported them the same day to the Directorate of Users and Administrative Police (Dupa) at the police headquarters. The family, the parents and their three children, were returning from Israel, according to Le Canard Enchaîné .
