SATMAR RIVALS IN BURIAL FEUD

Hundreds of Brooklyn Satmars descended on a rival faction’s cemetery to protest the blocked burial of a member who died yesterday.

The Satmars controlling the faction based in Rockland County refused to allow Eziel Perlstein, 41, to be buried in the Kiryas Joel cemetery. Perlstein’s father lives in Brooklyn, and has ties to the rival group in Williamsburg.
