A man who filmed himself accusing an Orthodox Jewish man of “killing babies” and threatening to break his jaw has been sentenced to 16 months in prison.

Shafiq Rahman, 48, of Slough, pleaded guilty to racially aggravated common assault, using threatening words to provoke violence, and criminal damage over the April incident on Elliman Avenue. He was sentenced Friday at Reading Crown Court, with a district judge previously calling the attack “a pure hate crime.”

Video filmed by the victim, a man in his 20s identified only as Moshe, showed Rahman accusing him of “killing babies in Palestine,” threatening to break his jaw, and knocking a phone from his hand while repeatedly cursing and calling him a “dirty Jew.” Moshe, who was wearing a black yarmulke at the time, said he had been thinking only of survival during the confrontation.

“What were you thinking going out like this, in England, as a visible Jew?” he recalled asking himself afterward, adding that the incident left him feeling unsafe.

The case comes amid a string of recent antisemitic attacks across the UK, including the sentencing of two men who traveled to Clapton Common to film themselves abusing a Jewish man for TikTok content.
