The Jerusalem court ordered the former prosecutor of the International Court of Justice, Karim Khan, to pay NIS 25 million.
The lawsuit was filed by the Shurat Hadin organization on behalf of former prisoners Eitan Mor and the families of Avinatan Or and Amri Miran. The prosecutors claimed that Khanim's delay in requesting arrest warrants against senior Hamas officials helped Hamas keep the prisoners in custody. The judgment was given in the absence of a statement of defense, after the filing of the claim in legal proceedings. Shurat Hadin said that it will work to enforce the verdict in England, where Khan lives, and will collect the full amount.
