A criminal court in Amsterdam sentenced four perpetrators of a 'Jew hunt' in November to prison terms ranging from 11 days to three months. The attacks, organized through WhatsApp groups, left 10 injured and hundreds unable to leave their hotels. The sentences have been criticized for being relatively mild, with one defendant receiving more jail time than the prosecutor demanded. Dutch media and politicians have been accused of downplaying the antisemitic nature of the attacks and providing cover for the perpetrators.
