Girl sentenced for swastika lie

[Niels Bohr 72]

A German girl who won a "civic courage" award for allegedly defending an immigrant child from neo-Nazis has been found guilty of inventing the story.

The 18-year-old - named as Rebecca K - had carved a swastika on her own thigh, the court concluded, rejecting her claim that neo-Nazis had done it.

In February she had received an award from a Berlin association campaigning against far-right violence.

She claimed four men had attacked her last November in the town of Mittweida.

In its ruling on Friday the court in Hainichen, eastern Germany, ordered her to do 40 hours of community service.

Doctors who examined her had testified that the swastika appeared to be a self-inflicted wound. She was 17 - a minor - when she made her report to the police.

She claimed that she had gone to the aid of an immigrant child and that four neo-Nazis had thrown her to the ground and carved the swastika on her.

Investigators failed to find any witnesses to corroborate her story, German media report.

Her story made headlines across Germany at the time, prompting soul-searching about a rise in neo-Nazi violence.

Many thanks to NB and many jeers to the crowd of VJ fools who called me a racist and anti-Muslim, etc. for raising questions about the Muslim college student who claimed to have been attacked by some masked racist in a bathroom. The story was ridiculous and I never heard anything more about it on OT.

Police: Student made up story of being attacked

October 17, 2008

FROM SUN-TIMES NEWS GROUP WIRE REPORTS

A Muslim student who claimed she was attacked at Elmhurst College in what school officials described as a hate crime has now been charged with making up the story.

Safia Z. Jilani, 19, of Oak Brook, told police that on Oct. 9, a masked, male attacker struck her in the head with a handgun after she entered a restroom in the Schaible Science Center on campus, according to a release from Elmhurst police.

Police found threatening graffiti -- "Kill the Muslims" -- written on a mirror in the restroom, students and police said. Earlier Thursday, the victim had spoken at a demonstration called to denounce anti-Islamic slurs and a swastika she had discovered Oct. 2 on her locker, school officials said.

But late Friday afternoon, Elmhurst police announced that a weeklong investigation determined the assault never occurred; there was no gunman; and Jilani was arrested on a warrant for filing a false police report, a Class 4 felony punishable by up to 3 years in prison.

Bond was set at $10,000 for Jilani, who posted $1,000 and was released, according to DuPage County State’s Attorney’s office spokesman Paul Darrah. Her next court hearing is Nov. 17 at 8:30 a.m. before Judge Kathryn Creswell.

The initial report of the attack triggered a lockdown at the college while police searched the campus and prompted hundreds of students to rally again the following day to protest the incident.

Officials at the 3,300-student private college -- which has about 30 Muslim students -- denounced the attack and promised to increase security on campus, including offers of rides for Muslim students to and from classes.

Oh look, Alien wants to make people eat humble pie, again! I think you are misnamed Mr Love Child.

As for the person in the OP's story - very wrong. I wonder what she thought she was going to achieve by her actions?

Both stories consist of young women claiming to attacked by racists and faked their wounds in the hopes of gaining publicity and sympathy. Both claimed they were standing up against racists but made up phony racist symbols or writing. Both had no witnesses. Both lied and were prosecuted as a result. Other than that, they don't have anything in common.

Why? You need help to massage your ego?

If you actually read the thread you might actually see what people were objecting to - the "perhaps her name is Tawanna" comment, and the usual "go to the head of the class" condescensions you like to foist on people - as though every comment is personally directed at you.

Still angry it seems. Ah well...

Funny thing is, we've been over the topic in post #2 twice already. You must be terribly insecure if you're still harping about that to make yourself feel better. Everyone who posted in that article was already called out, blah blah. Get over yourself.

Didn't need much more ego massaging after being proven right. Mick Jagger said he couldn't get no satisfaction but I did. C'mon 6, you mean there weren't more comments on the incident than on me. Try reading again it again for dessert. Skip the "anger" bit though. It's both old and inaccurate. You use that line almost daily regardless of the topic (but not the poster) Surely, you're more clever than that.

Funny thing is, we've been over the topic in post #2 twice already. You must be terribly insecure if you're still harping about that to make yourself feel better. Everyone who posted in that article was already called out, blah blah. Get over yourself.

Really? Can you give me the link where we went over the debunking the Muslim college student story before because I must have missed it? The fact you couldn't find any similarities between the two stories doesn't shock me (as much) anymore. Good luck with your search.

Can't be. 6, proclaimed the threads weren't as though

every comment is personally directed at you.

They were all referring to an anonymous third party or Harvey, the invisible rabbit.
