Shino Zuarz, Chairman of the Association, has sent a pre-litigation notice to former minister Issawi Frej, demanding NIS 1 million and an apology for alleged defamation. Zuarz claims Frej made slanderous remarks about him during a Sport 5 interview.
In the interview, Frej questioned budget control practices, stating, "When I say bribery, it has a thousand definitions. When a team from League A says there is budget control, I submitted those things, those sponsors, the same municipality. A year before everything was approved, this year not. Isn't this election bribery?" Zuarz interprets these statements as defamatory towards him.
Zuarz is demanding a correction, denial, and apology from Frej within one week. If Frej fails to comply, Zuarz intends to file a formal lawsuit against him. The dispute escalates the existing rivalry between the two figures.
