Supreme Court says no house arrest for alleged pedophile Malka Leifer
Add ToI as a Preferred Source on GoogleThe Supreme Court orders alleged serial pedophile Malka Leifer back in jail while the state determines if she is mentally fit to be extradited to Australia on charges of sexual abuse against former students.
Last week, the Jerusalem District Court Judge Ram Vinograd ordered Leifer be released to house arrest, sparking international outcry.
The attorney general’s office appealed Vinograd’s decision, which was accepted by the court, which ruled that Liefer must stay behind bars during the legal proceedings.
