Malka Leifer

Movers and shakers in Israeli society.

Former minister and United Torah Judaism MK Ya’acov Litzman's sentence will be eight-months in prison and an NIS 3,000 fine.

Malka Leifer, former principal of an ultra-Orthodox Jewish girls' school in Melbourne, is being charged with 74 counts of sexual abuse of students.

The UTJ MK was indicted for breach of public trust in January, after he cut a plea deal with then-attorney-general Avichai Mandelblit in which he will be convicted in the Malka Leifer case.

Two people came forward to accuse Baruch Leifer of sexual abuse including a family member who said he abused her when she was 12.

The former minister had been suspected of having used his influence to prioritize the interests of private individuals over the needs of the general public.

Judaism, the beautiful religion upon which this state is built, is being warped by these political shenanigans.

Reports of incidents of sexual violations against minors by pedophiles and sexual predators have been on the increase.

Australian legal officials sought the minister’s approval to add another 20 counts of sexual abuse to Leifer’s indictment after the additional incidents came to light.

Alleged sex offender Malka Leifer was committed to stand trial after a judge found that there was enough evidence that a jury could find her guilty.
