2 precedent-setting lawsuits against people who threw rocks at light rail
Add ToI as a Preferred Source on GoogleThe State Attorney’s office is expected to file two precedent-setting lawsuits against Arab residents of Jerusalem who threw rocks at the Jerusalem light rail, Ynet reports.
In both lawsuits, the state will demand that each of the two perpetrators pay NIS 40,000 (c. $10,000) for damage their actions caused to the light rail windows.
The move is part of a wider initiative to file civil lawsuits against terror activists who throw rocks, Molotov cocktails and flares – in tandem with any civil lawsuits filed against such offenders by private individuals. The lawsuits will only be filed against rock throwers above the age of 18.
