According to a report by Hodya Ran on the Walla website, this week the chairman of the World Association of Circumcisers, Netanel Sepeti, was also questioned on suspicion of obstruction of justice in the affair.
According to a senior source involved in the investigation, the suspicion against Septi concerns attempts made several years ago to "silence" complainants against the Mohel Deri, and even actions that are suspected of being intended to disrupt the handling of complaints and the investigation.
After being questioned, he was released under restrictive conditions.
At the end of the court hearing, the judge ruled that Deri, 66, from Bnei Brak, will surrender his passport for 180 days, is prohibited from engaging in circumcision for 60 days, and is prohibited from contacting those involved in the affair for two months.
According to the Walla report, the police are awaiting the opinion from the Institute of Forensic Medicine, which is considered one of the key pieces of evidence in the case. At the same time, investigators are continuing to examine suspicions of tampering with evidence and attempts to influence the complainants and their families.
