Ugly exploitation: Two young men from Breslov Hasidic Judaism who were involved in a car accident several months ago in the Vinnytsia area of ​​Ukraine, while on their way to Uman, were arrested and released pending their trial. This was after the intervention of the Chabad emissary in the city, Rabbi Shaul Horwitz, who presented a personal financial guarantee.

After the parties met with their lawyers, they reached an agreed settlement whereby the two men would pay $20,000 in compensation to the victims of the accident and for the damage caused to the vehicle.

After the agreed compromise was reached, the two young men disappeared without paying the agreed compensation, leaving no trace.

Meanwhile, the Ukrainian victim in the accident died from his injuries, which increased the anger in the victim's family.

The emissary, Rabbi Horwitz, told the website this morning COL"Suddenly I start receiving calls from government officials, who are close to the family, as well as from his wife, who claim that the Jewish community is to blame for the two men's escape.

""It wasn't enough that the two left their debt here, they also fled - and now this has resulted in a very great desecration of God.".

The Jewish community made great efforts to prevent the family from publishing the story in the Ukrainian media, which would not add to the good name of the Jewish community as a whole. "They are threatening that if the Chabad emissary and the Jewish community do not pay the money, they will release the story to the media and this will cause a terrible and terrible desecration of God," says a source in the Jewish community.

He added: "There is no reason for a Chabad emissary to shoulder the payment of compensation, when all he came to do was help and in the end he receives a painful kick. Please prevent the desecration of God and help a moment before you start slandering the Jews.".

According to the report, officials in the Jewish community have contacted senior businessmen in Breslov to whom the two people involved in the accident are associated. However, so far, the inquiries have not been answered.
