The Zioneer reports that former Knesset candidate Moshe Feiglin issued his first public response to an extortion attempt connected to the Bar-Ilan University mathematics lecturer indicted Monday for allegedly planning coordinated mass-casualty attacks against hundreds of Arab Israeli citizens. Feiglin said he had been receiving strange letters for years, only recently discovering through a team member that the correspondence sought to pressure him into joining the suspect's network; he filed a police complaint and the suspect was arrested.
Moshe Feiglin, a former Knesset candidate, issued his first public response to an extortion attempt linked to the Bar-Ilan lecturer's case. Feiglin stated that he had received strange letters for years but did not perceive them as a threat. After a team member opened one of the letters, they realized the sender was attempting to pressure him into joining the suspect's organization. Feiglin said a police complaint was filed and the sender was arrested. He also noted receiving death threats online from Arabs, adding that he is not afraid.
As The Zioneer reported earlier Monday, an indictment was filed against the 60-year-old mathematics lecturer for allegedly plotting coordinated mass-casualty terrorist attacks against hundreds of Arab Israeli citizens. The suspect is accused of spending years formulating a detailed plan code-named 'Am Ya'aseh Transfer' involving 12 terror cells, and attempting to recruit Feiglin. Feiglin's statement appears to confirm the recruitment attempt. Further details on the arrested individual remain unconfirmed.
