Description: 
Pierre Pinoncelli, summoned to court following his Hold-up contre l'Apartheid (Hold-up against Apartheid) at the Societe Generale a few months earlier, comes dressed in the convict striped suit with a Jewish star sewn on the chest.
He then began a violent tirade against the judges and the audience. I stand barefoot with a large raincoat “Mr. President I am going to do an action that should not be seen as an insult”. The President yells and during that time I unbuttoned."
