The lawyer for a Pakistani immigrant allegedly beaten by five Orthodox Jewish teens on Oct. 29 in Brooklyn wants prosecutors to charge at least five others believed to have egged on the attack.
Omar Mohammedi said yesterday that 10 or more people were present when Shahid Amber, 24, was taunted, then jumped outside a Dunkin’ Donuts in Midwood.
“The ones inciting and encouraging the violence should also be charged,” Mohammedi said.
A spokesman for the Brooklyn District Attorney’s Office said there may, indeed, be more arrests.
Yossi Friedman, 17, Shulomi Bitton and Benjamin Wasserman, both 16, and David Brach and Yitzi Horowitz, both 15 – each charged as an adult – face multiple counts, including second-degree assault as a hate crime.
