The boy reportedly lost 30 percent of his vision as a result of the attack.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\"><span style=\"color: #000080;\">In addition, since the HyperCacher attack, the watchdog said it has registered 72 online incidents and 60 accounts of verbal abuse and threats.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\"><span style=\"color: #000080;\">Adding to an air of despondency, French Jews are reporting incidents of hateful crimes against their community \u201cless and less,\u201d\u009d said the bureau.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\"><span style=\"color: #000080;\">\u201cIf the perpetrators get arrested they are released again and just continue with the attacks,\u201d\u009d said BNVCA director Danielle Ferra. \u201cIf they go to prison, they become Islamist extremists.
