In a moment of sanity that has become all too rare in the West today, the local prosecutor in Spain has summarily thrown out the case. He even went so far as to criticize the abusive nature of the complaint. How long will such a racist Islamophobe be allowed to retain his office?
Here’s the report from The Olive Press:
Muslim ham complaint thrown out
A PROSECUTOR has thrown out a complaint made by a Muslim family against a geography teacher who mentioned pork in their son’s class.
The teacher was explaining how cold climate in Granada highlands helps to preserve local Serrano ham.
The Children’s Prosecutor of Algeciras, Juan Cisneros, described the complaining pupil’s attitude as ‘abusive, sectarian, capricious and inadmissible’ and ordered the denouncement to be archived.
He said: “There is not even the minimal indication of any type of crime.”
The prosecutor went on to condemn the media storm created by the pupil’s parents and their opponents. He described the public’s interest in the case as ‘worrying’.
Hat tip: Fjordman.

It has been found that the Trevelez Ham Association (Trevelez was mentioned by the teacher as having an excellent climate for curing hams, because it is cold and dry up in the sierra) had bribed the teacher. The have now paid him back with a ham, which is the traditional bribe in Spain :)
We have indeed a penchant for ham. Ham is more than ham; it is a symbolic rejection of the two porcophobic communities that got a foothold in Spain during the Middle Ages.
Cisneros, eh? Cardenal Cisneros (there really was a Cardinal Cisneros back in the 16th century) is an excellent Pedro Ximenes sherry. Have one with your dessert after your main course of jamon. And a very haram New Year to you all!
(I have to type 'arstird' before I can leave my comment. Where I live, that would be regarded as an insult.)

What does he mean by "the public's interest in the case"? Which public does he mean?
