Justice Minister Reportedly Refuses To Pause Judicial Overhaul As Gov't Explores Options

ISRAEL

The Times of Israel reports that Israel's Justice Minister Yariv Levin refused to halt legislative work on the controversial judicial overhaul and told confidantes that "otherwise state prosecutors will seize the moment to try to indict him on trumped-up charges."

  • This comes as local media reported that the government was exploring options for moderating its judicial reforms, despite earlier rejecting President Isaac Herzog's compromise offer dubbed "the People's Framework."
  • There is considerable uncertainty about the likelihood of the legislation undergoing any serious changes, as other reports flagged a pushback from the Justice Ministry, which insists on passing judicial overhaul bills in their current form.
  • Five Israeli opposition leaders yesterday called President Herzog's proposal "workable but not ideal" and slammed the ruling coalition for its outright rejection of the plan. Prime Minister Netanyahu promptly responded by calling the proposal "one-sided."
