Rivlin will bring case of Malka Leifer to senior judge if it continues to stall
Israel's president promised Australia's premier he'd look into the case of Haredi child molestor Malka Leifer if the judge in the case, who's already looking like she's deliberately participating in delaying it further herself, continues to allow stalling to proceed:
Israeli President Reuven Rivlin has promised to raise the case of Australian alleged child abuser Malka Leifer with his country's top judge if her extradition case continues to stall in the courts. [...]It's about time higher powers rule upon this, and see to it the shoddy excuse for a school principal serves as an example of what should be done with sex offenders who duck the law, if that's what it takes to put an end to this travesty of justice. Will they? We'll have to wait and see.
Mr Rivlin discussed the matter with Prime Minister Scott Morrison during a visit to Canberra today, where Mr Morrison voiced Australia's strong desire to see justice in the case.
Opposition Leader Anthony Albanese also met the President, alongside Labor MP Josh Burns.
The Addas school is in Mr Burns' Melbourne electorate of Macnamara, and three of the alleged victims are constituents — Dassi Erlich, Nicole Meyer and Elly Sapper.
"I was pleased that President Rivlin advised me that if hearings scheduled this week do not see this matter progress towards Malka Leifer being extradited to Australia, he will personally meet with the Chief Justice of Israel to discuss how this matter can be expedited," Mr Burns said.
"This matter has dragged on far too long.
"These victims deserve justice and I will continue to fight until Malka Leifer is back in Australia facing trial."
