Parole Board to meet again on Katsav bid for early release

Disgraced former president Moshe Katsav is getting another hearing for his request for early release from a seven-year jail sentence for rape.

The Israel Prisons Service Parole Board will reconvene again at the start of December to discuss Katsav’s request, Channel 2 reports.

Katsav was put on closer monitoring over fears he may try to harm himself, after his previous request was denied in August.
