Deputy Minister Alomg Cohen claimed that Chief Justice of the Supreme Court Isaac Amit evicted the mother of hostage Ran Gvili, Talik, during a Tuesday hearing.
Footage seen by The Jerusalem Post showed Talik Gvili yelling at the leader of the Movement for the Quality of Government in Israel, Eliad Shraga, during a Supreme Court hearing on the prime minister's appointment of a new Shin Bet chief.
However, a Jerusalem Post reporter said that Gvili remained in the chamber after Amit confronted her for her interruption.
'Don't you dare use the hostages'
In the video, Shraga asserts that there are individuals in the Prime Minister's Office who act against the hostages. Then, Gvili stood up and told him: "You are acting against the hostages. Don't you dare use the hostages. I am the mother of a hostage."
Amit asked her who she was, and she replied that she was Ran Gvili's mother. Amit asserted that even though she was a hostage's mother, she was not allowed to intervene.
It is worth noting that, as per the Supreme Court protocol, while Amit or any other judge is in the room, only one lawyer at a time is allowed to speak.
This comes after Cohen submitted his appeal for resignation to Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, but then withdrew it less than 48 hours later.
