German police opened a criminal case on Wednesday against a security guard of Arab descent who showed Nazi salutes to Israeli athletes at the Olympic Park in Munich.

The German newspaper, Deutsche Zeitung, said, “The accident occurred while a delegation of Israeli athletes and officials walked towards the memorial to the Israeli athletes who died in an attack during the 1972 Olympics, and a guard showed them the Nazi salute.”

She added, “A German police officer noticed this criminal salute in Germany, and it turned out that the person who performed it was a 19-year-old young man from Berlin of Arab origin, who will face, according to German law, a fine and/or imprisonment for up to 3 years. “.

The attack on the Israeli delegation at the Olympic Games in Munich in 1972 was carried out by the “Black September” organization, which resulted in the killing of 11 Israeli athletes.
