"Kill the Jew ! "  The practice is banned. Israel had

On the 23rd June every year, a day before Sao Joao, we also celebrated 'mhar' 
or 'zudev', an old man made up of straw (with pant, shirt, shoes, hat etc) 
sitted on a chair, we carried him house to house where we used these pidde to 
hit or strike the ground saying 'Mhar re, Zud re, ku, ku, ku'. This was a 
tradition in salcette, don't know it's significance though (Zudev also mean 
Judev).
