A 21-year-old Man Was Charged Last Night (wednesday, 25 October) With A Racially Aggravated Public Order Offence

The suspect is accused of shouting insults at a man in Orthodox Jewish clothing in an aggressive manner by Stamford Hill railway station at 5.50pm on Tuesday, 24 October.

The alleged victim went to the railway station and reported the incident to British Transport Police officers, who arrested the suspect.

The case was then passed to the Met. The suspect was identified and it was discovered he was also wanted on suspicion of a second racially aggravated public order allegation.

He is accused of being verbally abusive and threatening to kill a man for being in a mixed relationship in Walthamstow in May 2023.

Detective Constable Steve Jones, based in Bethnal Green, said: “There is no place for hate in our communities and it will not be tolerated by the Met.

“Every Londoner should be able to go about their life without suffering abusive behaviour.

”There has been a 14-fold increase in anti-Semitic hate crime incidents across London since the conflict between Israel and Hamas.

“The Met has hundreds of officers undertaking patrols, particularly in areas where communities feel vulnerable.

They have made over 4,800 visits to mosques, synagogues and faith schools to talk with members and reassure them about the work they are doing.
