Barbara Slowik said that ‘violent crimes against Jewish people are few and far between, but every act is one too many’
Jews and gays should not disclose their identities in “Arab neighbourhoods” where people have “sympathies for terrorist groups”, Berlin’s police chief has warned.

Barbara Slowik said: “There are areas of the city, we need to be perfectly honest here, where I would advise people who wear a kippah or are openly gay to be more careful.

“There are certain neighbourhoods where the majority of people of Arab origin live, who also have sympathies for terrorist groups,” adding that these individuals were regularly “openly hostile towards Jews”.
