Protests were held around the world on Sunday over the court decision in France to allow a man who murdered French Jewish woman Sarah Halimi to avoid trial on the grounds he acted in a drug-induced delirium.
Jewish groups have reacted with outrage to the recent decision by France s highest court to uphold a 2019 ruling that Kobili Traore was not criminally responsible for the murder of the 65-year-old retired physician and teacher.
