Australian Jewish community protests Yaakov Litzman's appointment to full minister
The Australian Jewish community sent a letter to the prime minister's office about the unfortunate appointment of Litzman to a full ministerial position:
The Executive Council of Australian Jewry has written to Israel’s Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu appealing to him to reconsider the appointment to Minister of Health of Yaakov Litzman, who is under investigation for blocking the extradition of alleged child sexual abuser Malka Leifer.I think, for the sake of good relations, it would be best to remove Litzman from the position he's in now. At a time like this, the bad publicity that could come about from this is something Israel's political system doesn't need.
President Jillian Segal and co-CEOs Peter Wertheim and Alex Ryvchin wrote in the letter that “allegations of executive interference in the judicial process by Mr. Litzman in support of Ms. Leifer unavoidably raise grave questions about the integrity of the handling of her case in Israel while Mr. Litzman remains in any government position.”
