States Doesn’t Object And The High Court Orders Return Of Terrorists’ Body


zakaThe High Court of Justice on Thursday, 27 Nissan ordered the return of the bodies of slain terrorists held by Israel, referring to the bodies of former eastern Jerusalem residents.

The decision followed the state announcing it is removing its objections to the move. The court recommended the return process be completed before the beginning of Ramadan in about a month.

Public Security Minister Gilad Erdan announced that the Israel Police policy is that any family agreeing to the conditions surrounding the funeral for a terrorist will receive the body. This includes the exclusion of incitement against Israel at the funeral.

Bayit Yehudi leader Minister Naftali Bennett stated at the last cabinet meeting that the return of the bodies of terrorists is a major error that simply encourages additional terror attacks.
