Israeli Rabbinical Court emissaries arrived at a maximum-security prison in Bangladesh, where an Israeli woman is currently serving a 20-year term for drug trafficking. The representatives brought with them a religious divorce document, known as a get, to the woman's cell in response to her husband's application for divorce to the Rabbinical Court. It was a divorce by mutual consent.
As per the Rabbinical Court, Rabbi Eyal Yosef from the branch in Tel Aviv arranged for a proxy divorce based on a ruling by the late Rabbi Ovadia Yosef. Rabbi Eliyahu Birnbaum, appointed emissary, traveled to Dubai, then proceeded to New Delhi, India, and finally arrived in Calcutta. From there, the rabbi hired an off-road vehicle and embarked on a seven-hour drive through the jungle roads and mountains of North India.
Upon the court emissary's arrival at the prison, he found the facility sealed off, with no visitors allowed. After numerous attempts, Rabbi Birnbaum and the local Chabad emissary, who had joined him as a witness, were granted permission to enter the prison. They passed the divorce document through the bars of the jail cell and handed it to the woman, a member of the Jewish Indian Bnei Menashe community.
After 72 hours, the court emissary returned to Israel. He went to the regional rabbinical court's hall, where he testified about the delivery of the divorce document to the woman, marking the successful completion of the mission.
