Petition seeks to thwart release of prisoners with 'much blood on hands'

A Jerusalem resident has submitted a petition to the High Court of Justice, demanding the government to avoid release 29 Palestinian prisoners who "have much blood on their hands." The list of inmates includes the terrorists who were involved in Nachshon Wachsman's murder and a member of the cell responsible for a cafe bombing.

The petitioner, Ronit Tamari, is urging the government to explain why "it is abandoning its citizens, children and infants by releasing murderers." (Aviad Glickman)
