High Court to Rule on the Future of Givat Assaf


1

According to the state prosecutor, the documents presented to prove the validity of the purchase of three homes in Givat Assaf are problematic and the states is seeking to raze those buildings. Givat Assaf is located in Shomron, in the Binyamin Regional Council district. The residents have been facing an uphill battle as Israeli left-wingers are backing Arabs who insist the Jewish homes are on their land.

A number of months ago residents demolished a number of buildings while submitting documentation to validate the acquisition of the other plots of land in question.

There were a number of extensions and a decision is expected from the Israel Supreme Court on Tuesday 7 Elul. Residents of the community realize that to date, efforts to save the homes have not been successful and the fate of the three homes rests in the hands of the High Court. If the court rejects the bid to prevent the demolitions, it is likely the homes will be razed in the immediate future.
