Petition the Knesset to extradite Malka Leifer to face justice in Australia

The issue

The Petition of Australian residents, an initiative of the Victorian Parliamentary Friends of Israel, draws to the attention of the Knesset that former Adass Israel School Principal Malka Leifer, who fled to Israel from Australia in 2008 and is wanted for questioning by Victorian Police for 74 charges of child sexual abuse, remains in Israel despite constant pleas from victims for her extradition to Australia.

The petitioners therefore request that the Knesset does whatever it can to have Malka Leifer extradited from Israel to Australia, so she may be questioned over 74 charges of child sexual abuse and victims can have justice.
