הייעוץ המשפטי לכנסת: הקפאת מעצרי עריקים? זה לא חוקי

הערכה

The legal adviser to the Knesset's Foreign Affairs and Defense Committee has ruled that a proposal to freeze criminal proceedings and arrests of ultra-Orthodox draft evaders is unlawful. This sets up a direct clash between a parliamentary initiative aimed at temporarily shielding evaders and the legal establishment's position that such a freeze lacks statutory basis. The coming legislative debate will test whether the coalition can override this legal objection.
