Yerushalayim: Battle Against Sikrikim Continues


The battle in Meah Shearim against the hoodlums known as Sikrikim has moved to another venue, Bnei Brak, where police on Wednesday night (Oct 5) arrested one of the organization’s leaders. The man in custody, Sholom R. is viewed as one of the leaders of the group that has been targeting the Ohr Chaim bookstore in Yerushalayim.

It appears a manager of Ohr Chaim ran into him in a shul on Dessler Street, leading to an argument. After leaving the shul, persons with the Ohr Chaim manager began following R. in a taxicab. At some point, with the assistance of local Shomrim, they stopped the cab they were following and summoned police, who made the arrest.

According to police, he was under house arrest but opted to ignore it, traveling to Bnei Brak on Wednesday to collect funds, accompanied by a son, moving from shul to shul. Police arrested him for violating his parole.

  1. Please print a picture, so if he comes to our neighborhood to raise funds we will know that it’s not for a worthy cause.

  2. Yes, print a picture of him as we see him and another when he is dressed to meet with his ShaBaK handlers who MADE SURE he violated house arrest so they could pretend to rein in their own man!
