Turkish MP was beaten for ordering pork sausage in Germany

http://news.am/eng/news/70698.html

"BERLIN. - Turkish member of Berlin state parliament Orjam Mutluin was beaten in the restaurant, because he dared to order a sausage during Muslim Ramadan......"

OK, the story does not state the religion of Mutluin but..................

Notice the number of just down right odd things in this story.

I totally agree with this behavior pattern and would like to see more Muslims beating other Muslims for infractions....excellent example.

Now that's funny, I wonder if he was beaten with a large sausage? :p

He must have ordered bratwurst.

There are more different types of sausage produced in Germany than anywhere else in the world. Being that they are trying to be more health conscious, more turkey and chicken are even being used now. He should have chose putenwurst. :D

From the German press:

A Berlin Green Party parliamentarian has been charged with assault after he allegedly started a fight over the price of currywurst at a city snack stand last Friday.

Berlin MP Charged In Fight Over Currywurst
TheLocal, 9 Aug 2011

Sausage seller, Oguzhan K., told the BZ newspaper that Berlin House of Representatives member Özcan Mutlu first complained about the €11 price of sausages, Fanta and fries before hitting him in the chest.

“He insulted my lunch as a ‘load of shit',” complained Oguzhan K., who sells the currywurst near the famed Brandenburg Gate. “Then he took off his glasses and hit me twice in the chest.”

Mutlu, who is an education expert for his party, describes the incident somewhat differently.

He acknowledges complaining about the price, but said the sausage seller then insulted him rudely in Turkish, which Mutlu understands.

“He insulted me viciously because I ordered a currywurst as a Muslim during Ramadan,” Mutlu said, explaining that he sent his young daughter to the side and then alerted police.

Then, he told the BZ, several angry sausage salesmen surrounded him in a threatening manner and one of them pushed him. Mutlu admits pushing back, but said it was a matter of self defence.

The whole issue is one of discrimination against him for eating during Ramadan, he said.

“This is precisely the intolerance against which I have been fighting for 20 years as a politician,” Mutlu told the newspaper.

But don't



So the Muslim Turks beat the (assumed) Muslim for ordering a currywurst during Ramadan, but the restaurant/food-stand did not have a problem with cooking and handling pork...during the aforementioned holy week.


hmmmm

The whole situation sounds like a grind to me. Hopefully, the local authorities are casing the establishment to see if there are any more twists to the story.
