The young man Meir Sabag, a student at the 'Darchi Ish' yeshiva in Moshav Tirosh, who was arrested last night near Be'er Sheva for the crime of studying Torah, after returning from a meeting - was sent today (Tuesday) to 10 days in prison in the military prison.

The aid organization Chayei Olam reported that, through the activities of the organization's legal department and led by Attorney Shlomo Hadad and Attorney Itai Cohen, the young man was sentenced to only 10 days, and that the legal department is now considering submitting a request to sweeten and appeal the decision.

MK Michael Malchieli of Shas Naz reacted angrily to the continued arrest of yeshiva students by the Israel Police: "Commissioner Danny Levy - a hero to the weak! Suddenly, before the elections, you decided to join hands with the Ombudsman, in order to flatter her in the hope that you will not be expelled after the elections.".

""Instead of dealing with the rising crime and the murderers roaming free, you send the Israeli police to abuse Torah scholars and throw them in prison, all for political reasons. You know that you will be the first to be thrown out of office. Shame and disgrace!""
