A rabbinical court in Tel Aviv issued an exit deferment order against
a haredi couple from the United States and confiscated their passports,
claiming that they support their son's refusal to give his wife a Gett (divorce document) for many years.
The father of "divorce-refuser" Oded Gaz, a doctor of physics and a
former lecturer at Bar Ilan University, was sentenced to a 30-day
imprisonment after Gaz stopped appearing at Rabbinical Court hearings.
“Me and my husband are being punished for no reason,” said Gaz’s mother according to Walla! News. “Perhaps the Court is seeking to help an Agunah (Jewish woman who is "chained" to her marriage - ed.), but they are being cruel to the wrong people."
If the son gives the get because of this, it wouldn't be a "get meuseh"?
ReplyDeleteThe couple can get the United States Department of State to force Israel to permit the American couple return to the United States. The State Department already assisted Americans held in Israel for Get offenses leave in the past.
ReplyDeletewhat a bucnch of corrupted rabbanut! They have no justification to hold the parents hostage. They think that they are God who can judge parents for childrens sins!
ReplyDeleteThe difference between the letters spelling "court" and "corrupt" is a "p" and an "r" standing for "phony rabbis".
