Among those who were released, 18 draft evaders and one deserter were not released to their homes, but were transferred by the Israel Prison Service to the Military Police for further handling.
At the same time, the police requested an extension of eight days for the detention of four additional suspects arrested in the incident, including one deserter. According to the police, this is due to a “significant development” in the investigation, and a “secret report” was submitted on the matter.
In addition, a minor arrested in the case will, at this stage, remain under house arrest conditions.
The District Court rejected on Monday the appeal filed by 51 of the suspects who were arrested on suspicion of involvement in the intrusion into the yard of the judge’s home and causing damage to plants, the house windows, and the family vehicle. According to the decision, they remained in custody until today.
As previously reported, last week extremist charedi protesters arrived at the home of Noam Solberg, broke windows in his house and smashed the windshield of his vehicle.
The rioters came to demonstrate against his order to intensify the arrest of draft evaders from yeshivas, and caused significant damage at the judge’s home. Around 60 of them were arrested.
The protesters arrived near Solberg’s home in protest over what they described as his directive to increase enforcement against draft dodgers. The local emergency response unit of Gush Etzion was mobilized to protect the judge’s home in the initial moments until police arrived.
Afterwards, the protesters boarded a bus and attempted to leave the scene. Large police forces that arrived in the area stopped the bus carrying the protesters and arrested them.
if draft dodgers are arrested and imprisoned can they not learn torah there? And with enough there they can have a kollal and minyanim
If only you would live and let live, nobodies changing your lifestyle you’re being left alone, leave your fellow brothers alone and I promise you the situation will change overnight.
all of these problems are happening under Bibi
The damages must be paid for. If they are minors, parents.must pay. This is what the Rabbanim teach their Talmidim. They act like the Antifada and BLM terrorists who destroyed property in the US. You disagree without destroying people’s homes and property. There are other ways to accomplish goals. You don’t act like Chayos if you are Ben Torah, even if the other side is composed of Chayos.
If only we had Avigdor Lieberman running the show, we would not have all these problems.
