A letter sent by Shlomo L., a former student of Yeshivas Nishmas Shlomo, a Yesivah in Tzfas, Israel, known as YNS, thanking “Rabbi O”.

LONDON, UK — With his dark-blue uniform, earpiece and walkie-talkie, Nochem Perlberger could pass for a police officer as he patrols the leafy streets of London’s Stamford Hill neighbourhood. Like an officer of the law, he responds to emergency calls, visits crime scenes and pursues suspects.

However, he is a member not of the constabulary but of the Stamford Hill Shomrim Rescue Patrol, a group of Orthodox Jewish men who, for the past two years, have been “policing” the streets of their community in Hackney.
