                  Vandals strike Jewish Cemetery located in the center of Mogilev.

                  28.06.2007

                  Vandals overturned and broke tombstones at a Jewish cemetery in the center of Mogilev city (Belarus). Four tombstones right in the center of the cemetery were overturned in the afternoon.
                  Relatives of the buried requested that police launch an investigation, which however came up with nothing after a week.
                  Leader of local Jewish community Naum Ioffe said that during conversation with him police officers considered completely fantastical, in his opinion, version the version that the tombstones were turned down by the wind. He also added that attacks of vandals who tore off decorating elements from the tombstones have been observed earlier, however the hooligans weren't found.
