apushutayid: cherrybim is correct. Rav Elyashev shlit”a, may the RBS’O return him to the best of health, paskened that “raglayim ldavar” must first be established to permit reporting. Without that, says the posek hador, it is against the Torah to report. And being raglayim ldavar is a halachic determination, it needs to be first so determined by a posek, on a case-by-case basis, something I believe is specifically stated in Rav Elyashev shlita’s psak.
