The sentences of the Jewish traders in Algeria at the Lyon trial weren’t deemed insufficient. At the end of the decree of March 15, 1942, Jews can only hold immunities for personal habitation or used exclusively for the exercise of their profession. Some Muslim circles are impatiently awaiting the entry into force of this decree. They say they have robbed of their real estate thanks to usurious loans easily granted to them by the Jews. Current legislation also calls for the closure of cafes run by Jews who are not French citizens.
