Chareidim Continue to Disregard Rules ... 400-person Jewish wedding in Stamford Hill broken up by police

Site of mass Haredi wedding in London: A school whose principal died of COVID

Rabbi Avrohom Pinter died in April at the age of 71. When the British government ordered a lockdown that month to slow the spread of coronavirus, Pinter went door-to-door in northeast London to deliver the public health warning to the ultra-Orthodox Jews in his community. Within days, he had caught the disease and died.

 On Thursday, London Police broke up a Jewish wedding party in north London. According to police sources, about 400 people were taking part in the event.

According to a report by BBC, the police found the windows at the Yesodey Hatorah Senior Girls' School, in Stamford Hill covered when they arrived at the scene and the guests fled when the officers arrived.

"We had no knowledge that the wedding was taking place", a spokesman of the school said in response to the report, "We are absolutely horrified about last night's event and condemn it in the strongest possible terms."

Chief Rabbi of the UK, Rabbi Ephraim Mirvis, responded to the incident and wrote: "This is a most shameful desecration of all that we hold dear. At a time when we are all making such great sacrifices, it amounts to a brazen abrogation of the responsibility to protect life & such illegal behaviour is abhorred by the overwhelming majority of the Jewish community".

BBC reports that the organizers face a £10,000 fine for breaking lockdown rules.
