Short-Lived Celebration: High Court Orders Peleg Officials Back To Jail


It was a day of drama at at the Peleg Yerushalmi.

Not long after HaPeles Editor Nati Grossman returned home to house arrest, he was ordered back to jail by an order from the High Court.

Grossman along with the newspaper’s CEO Shmulik Elyashiv, manager Avraham Trager, and Chaim Yavrov received the same ruling.

Grossman had already received a heroes welcome with supporters singing and dancing outside his home, and Peleg-affiliated Rabbonim coming to greet him. The others had still been in prison and were scheduled to be released moments away from when the new ruling came down.

According to a report by Bichadrei Chareidim, Judge Dafna Barak-Orez made the decision, overturning the earlier decision by the Lod District court. For reasons unknown, they have been ordered to remain in prison until Friday afternoon close to Shabbos, when they will then be released to house arrest.

As YWN had reported, more than 2 dozen Hapeles / peleg yerushalmi officals were arrested on Isru Chag Pesach. Police said they were taken into custody in connection with alleged extortion, efforts to get large companies in Israel to advertise in the Peleg-affiliated HaPeles Newspaper.

  1. It is not often that I comment on news items written in YWN. I know that YWN says ‘they have not taken any sides in the disagreement in the Litvishe world’ I would hate to see what the news items would look like if YWN had taken a side. You are so one sided I can’t remember when was the last time you wrote anything positive about the Peleg group. Anybody who knows the truth knows that the Police, Judge are all on the side of Degel most probably even work for Degel, what reason can there be that the Editor and manager of Hapeles are kept in Jail on ‘Trumped up charges’ are they Hardened Criminals? Be Honest The leader of the Peleg Party is one of the Gedolei Hador a true Manhig who is going in the way of the Gedolim of the previous generation The Degel Hatorah Of today is not the Party that was founded by Maran Harav Shach ZT’l It is about time you gave equal space to the real torah party.

  2. #2- I agree. the peleg leader is in fact a gadol. Just wondering what heter in the world there is for the rampant GEZEL ZMAN that can never ever ever be re-payed to any of the hundreds of thousands of innocent bystanders stuck in traffic in protests organized by the “leader of the Peleg” (you said it, not me).

    Let us know.

    The answer is, that hagaon rav shmuel auerbach is a such a tzadik and goan that he has absolutely no clue what these animals are doing in his name.

    you people are a disgrace. you have destroyed rav shmuel auerbachs name from one day becoming the undisputed leader of klal yisroel. a few hateful jealous despicable people caused this and dragged him all the way down without he even having an inkling what happened to his name. a travesty of epic proportions.

    The only thing nati grossman has accomplished is that he single-handily split kall yisroel.

    when he worked for the yated he used to treat maran rav shteinman like a fool until he was fired and thrown out. that is what this is all about.

    and if your the true torah party, then go on your own. lets see how many seats you get.

    maybe join eli yishai and maybe just maybe maybe you will get one leg of a broken chair.

    what arrogant tipshim this group of thieving reshoyim they are.

    stealing my time that i personally missed my flight o an airport? i never cared about this stupid fight as i live in nyc. but i promise never to give a penny to any peleg-affiliated mosod including bmg.

  3. This is a short celebration of the Mafia police and the Bnei Brak faction. The Yerushalmi group are very strong and, as usual, always get their way. The High Court are only keeping them back for another few days to make a show as if they have more power but in truth the High Court are terrified from the Yerushalmi group.

    #2 Balbos YWN did tshuva since yesterday, if you haven’t noticed. Otherwise your comment wouldn’t be censored and rejected.
    Secondly, its’ NOT “the Police, JudgeS are all on the side of Degel most probably even work for Degel” but it’s DEFINITELY so for which the Yerushalmi group have clear proof. Very soon all criminal activities from Peleg Bnei Brak will be exposed to the public which will cause a political earthquake.
    Thirdly, FYI the terminology “Peleg – faction” has been switched to the minority group of Bnei Brak.

  4. #3 Rav Auerbach shlit”a is FULLY AWARE what his talmidim are doing. He is following the shita of the Chazon Ish zt”l who instructed to do such “action” to protest the giyus.

    Blocking roads when necessary is and always was acceptable when approved by Gedolim. Ger did the same in Bnei Brak several months ago when they protested about Kiryat Gat but we didn’t hear from you nor from Peleg Bnei Brak about it. Neither did we hear from you nor from Peleg Bnei Brak when the Hilltop Youth’s blocked all intersections a year or two ago. Several months ago Peleg Bnei Brak protested in Yerushalayim but we didn’t hear from you then either. These are only some examples of your hypocrisy.

  5. I usually do not leave any comments but i have to agree completely with shoitagamur, most comments that support Peleg have no idea what they are doing to delay people going to work, going to a chasuna or coming home from a tiring day, by blocking roads , they also have no idea what Hagon harav Chaim Kanievsky holds of what Peleg is all about , become informed before you support a organization like Peleg

  6. It’s difficult to admit mistakes, but that is what the Peleg faction needs to do.
    No one was matzliach disagreeing with Rav Schach z”l. Likewise no one was or will be matzliach disobeying Rav Aaron Leib or R Chaim shlita. Unfortunately these people are experiencing the results of their actions and it’s just a beginning. They need their wives or friends to save them, similar to the Bnei Korach.

  7. The whole country should strike in sympathy with the Torah and against its denigration by the “rulers”!
    The Torah is directly connected to national security!
    Torah is life-get it!
