Israel's Attorney General, Gali Baharav-Miara, has formally requested the Supreme Court to issue an interim order to freeze Communications Minister Shlomo Karhi's controversial communications law. Baharav-Miara argues that the law was passed through a flawed process marred by significant deficiencies.
According to the Attorney General, the implementation of this law would severely damage the structure of the free communications market. She contends that due to the extreme number of defects in the legislative procedure, judicial intervention is urgently needed to halt the law before it takes effect.
Baharav-Miara's plea to the High Court of Justice highlights her office's opposition to the law, citing procedural irregularities and potential harm to the communications sector. The request seeks to suspend the law pending a full judicial review of its validity and the process by which it was enacted.
