Bulgaria suspect in Paris Holocaust memorial defacement denies racial motives

SOFIA: A Bulgarian man fighting extradition to France for vandalizing the Holocaust memorial in Paris in May denied on Wednesday that he had acted out of racist motives, telling AFP it was “just hooliganism”. France issued European arrest warrants for three Bulgarians after red hands were painted on the Paris Holocaust Memorial's Wall of the Righteous, which lists 3,900 people honored for protecting Jews during the Nazi occupation of France during World War II.
