Hostage family members petitioned the High Court of Justice to add charges of fraud and breach of trust to the indictment against Yonatan Urich and Eli Feldstein in the Bild classified-document leak affair, according to Channel 12.
Family members of hostages held in Gaza petitioned the High Court of Justice on Tuesday, asking that the state add charges of fraud and breach of trust to the existing indictment against Yonatan Urich, Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's communications adviser, and Eli Feldstein in the Bild document leak case. The petition argues that the current charges do not fully capture the harm caused by the leak, which allegedly involved highly classified intelligence passed to the German newspaper Bild. As The Zioneer reported on June 12, Urich was indicted on charges of passing secret information with intent to harm state security, holding secret information, and destroying evidence. The High Court has not yet ruled on the petition, and the prosecution's position remains unstated.
