Three Are Arrested
For Chicago Arson
Chicago (JTA) — 'three Pa-
lestinians were charged last
week with setting fire to a
Torah academy located in
West Rogers Park, a
predominantly Jewish
neighborhood here.
The three were apparently
"upset with the Jews for
what they were doing to the
Palestinians" in the Middle
East, according to a local
police commander.
The fire, which gutted a
three-story classroom
building at the Chicago
Community Kollel Institute
for Advanced Torah Studies,
was one of five separate acts
of vandalism and arson that
took place on Jan. 28. All of
the incidents involved Jew-
ish institutions located in
the West Rogers Park area.
Chicago police said they
were questioning the three
suspects to determine if they
were involved in the other
acts of vandalism.
The three suspects, all of
Palestinian descent and
residents of the Chicago
area, were each charged this
week with one count each of
arson and committing a hate
crime.
After appearing in Cook
County Circuit Court, where
they each pleaded not guilty,
the three were ordered de-
tained pending the posting
of a $500,000 bond for each.
The police said the arrests
were made after they had
received a series of tips. The
three have so far not been
tied to any larger organiza-
tion, according to police
sources.
The three charged were
Yasir Yasin, 17, Abdelsalam
Khalil, 20, and his brother
Yousef, 18. Mr. Yasin was
out on bail on a burglary
charge when the incident
took place.
The Jewish community
here was stunned by the
spate of vandalism incidents
taking place here late last
month.
Following the announce-
ment of the arrests, Robert
Adler and Michael Kotzin,
the chairman and director,
respectively, of the Jewish
Community Relations Coun-
cil of the Jewish United
Fund of Metropolitan
Chicago, issued a statement
applauding the efforts of
local police.
"From the outset the
police demonstrated that
they were approaching this
matter with the seriousness
it merited. These arrests are
greatly welcomed by the
community," the statement
read.
The city's mayor had been
among those condemning
the arson attacks.
Local Arab leaders had
also condemned the attacks.
Responding to the acts of
vandalism and arson, the
Jewish Federation of
Metropolitan
Chicago/Jewish United
Fund had announced a
reward of $10,000 for infor-
mation leading to the arrest
and conviction of those con-
nected with the attacks.
But it was not clear
whether the reward offer
helped the police with their
investigation.
Of the five incidents, the
Chicago Community Kollel
Institute suffered the worst
case of arson. A pre-dawn

fire swept through the
building that housed the in-
stitute's offices and
classrooms.
Investigators said someone
broke the front-door
windows of the building
around 5:30 a.m. on Jan. 28
and started a fire.
Rabbi Moshe Francis, dean
of the Kollel Institute, said
he proceeded with a 6 a.m.
Talmud class in one of the
institute's two adjoining
buildings, even as the fire
burned in the other building.
In the second case of arson,
worshippers arriving for
morning prayers at Con-
gregation B'Nei Ruven
found charred leaves that
had apparently been put
under the synagogue's door
while they were still ablaze.
Before the arrests were
made, investigators had said
the two cases of arson did not
fit the usual profile of a hate
crime, since no slogans or
graffiti were left behind in
either instance and no ver-
bal threats had been receiv-
ed.
A third fire broke out at
K.I.N.S. Congregation of
West Rogers Park between 3
a.m. and 5 a.m. on Jan. 28
and was later discovered by
a janitor. The damage there
was minimal. ❑
