Jewish community reps condemn Sydney brawl AN anti-semitic fuelled brawl in Sydney's east has highlighted the need for effective criminal laws addressing racial attacks, the NSW Jewish Board of Deputies believes. Four men, 66, 48, 39, 27, and a 62-year-old woman were taken to hospital after a melee broke out on Blair Street in Bondi early on Saturday morning. NSW Police say it received reports the group walked past eight men who made anti-semitic comments to them. The eight males also allegedly assaulted the group. Fairfax Media reported the five adults had been returning from a Jewish Sabbath dinner. NSW Jewish Board of Deputies president Yair Miller said while Australia was a peaceful country, there were some people motivated by hatred and racism. ..."which has no place in our society and the attack in Bondi is the worst incident of anti-semitic violence in Sydney for many years," he said in a statement. We express our concern for the welfare of the family who were assaulted and are grateful to the NSW police for their swift and comprehensive response. Mr Miller said the brawl highlighted the need for "effective criminal law" against racial incitements as current legislation has proved unworkable. The NSW Anti-Discrimination Board president Stepan Kerkyasharian confirmed the body would investigate the attack. Federal MP for Wentworth, which encompasses Bondi, Malcolm Turnbull said "we should have zero tolerance." Two 17-year-old males were charged with affray and breach of bail. He was granted bail to at Waverley Local Court on December 3.
