Anyway, he had his leg broken according to the wall poster I photographed this morning - although I was apprehensive that it would have been covered up over the Shabbat as I had spotted it on Thursday.
Here's one of the whole poster, in situ:-
and here's a close-up of the report on his attack and subsequent hosptial treatment:-
Funny enough, 27 years ago, the NK were out demonstrating in Washington for his release from jail.
I had thought that his being roughed up had to do with his book but now that I read the fine print as well as this JPost story, it seems the Rosh Kollel was not attacked by fellow Satamrists/NKs but by police while he was demonstrating for the continued hanging of a big wall sign warning females to dress modestly. Of course, he could have got himself in that situation to protect himself from a more fearsome attack from his neighbors (after all, he had his book published in the States) but that's just a conspiracy theory.
