High Court rejects request to arrest Fatah congress attendees

Published: 08.07.09, 15:10 / Israel News

The High Court of Justice rejected the appeal of MK Michael Ben-Ari (National Union) and right-wing activist Itamar Ben-Gvir that sought to arrest five Fatah delegates attending the movement's congress being held in Bethlehem.

 

The judges ruled in favor of the State's position and decided that "the verdict is of decidedly political nature relating to the government's political path on foreign and defense affairs." The appellants paid a legal fee of NIS 3,000 (about $760) to the defending council. (Ronen Medzini)
