The neighbourhood in North London is home to the biggest population of Hasidic Jews in Europe and has long been plagued by anti-Semitic assaults, but these appear to have increased in intensity since the October 7 terror attacks on Israel. Suspected hate crimes reported to police in recent months include thugs on bikes randomly assaulting men in traditional Jewish dress, and a horrific attack that saw a 20-year-old woman allegedly beaten unconscious. Graffiti showing the Star of David crossed out has also appeared in the neighbourhood and a religious school left daubed in red paint.

Abdullah Quagogue's aims included a 14-year-old boy on his way to school and a 64-year-old man who was knocked out as he arrived at the synagogue. Last August 18, the 30-year-old struck a teacher in the head with a plastic bottle while delivering the attacks in the Stamford Hill neighborhood, which is known for its orthodox Jewish population. Quirki said it was just a coincidence that his three victims were all wearing traditional Jewish clothing and that he struck out after getting 'angrier and angrier' after a row in a store. However, prosecutor Varinder Hayre suggested to Quentin that he moved from Dewsbury to Jerusalem because "you hate Jews." Questible Magistrates' Court in east London found Quentin guilty of inflicting serious bodily injury as a result of beating, which was the subject of a trial. On December 8, Mr Law submitted the case to Snaresbrook Crown Court for sentencing, granting Quentshi bail on the condition that he does not enter Hackney, the London borough.
