The 52-year-old manager was arrested on charges of discrimination on religious grounds after he refused entry to a group of 150 young Israeli tourists, aged between 8 and 16, despite booking in advance. The prosecutor's office emphasized that refusal is a serious crime, with a penalty of up to three years in prison. The young people were forced to change their plans and move to another location, where they were accompanied by the gendarmerie. The interior minister condemned the administrator's action as unacceptable.
