Uri Blau to return secret documents

Haaretz journalist informs attorneys who visit him in London of whereabouts of classified documents he received from Anat Kam; refuses to hand over materials from other sources

In the coming days Uri Blau's attorneys are slated to submit to the security authorities the documents he received from ex-soldier Anat Kam. Attorneys Tali Lieblich and Mibi Mozer, who are representing the Haaretz journalist, told Ynet on Wednesday that they met with Blau in London, and that he informed them of the whereabouts of the documents in question.

 

Lieblich said, "We have received the information from Uri, and I would like to emphasize that the documents are in Israel and he did not take them anywhere. It is time this rumor is laid to rest. In the coming days we will hand them over to the authorities."

 

Lieblich further noted that the defense establishment's demand to receive all of the material in Blau's possession is not new, but that Blau and the Haaretz newspaper refuse to hand it all over, and say the only material he plans to give to the defense establishment is that which he received from Anat Kam, since she waived confidentiality on it.

 

Lieblich added that there is no other agreement between Blau and the security authorities.

 

According to the indictment against Kam, the ex-soldier provided Blau with a large quantity of documents which she stole during her IDF service in the office of the Central Command chief.

 

Blau has been staying overseas over the last few months while negotiating the documents' return with the Shin Bet and the State Prosecutor's Office.

 

The Shin Bet accused the journalist of failing to hand over all of the documents he received from Kam, after having reached an agreement with the organization.
