Moti Leitner, chairman of the Haredi Public Party, has filed a formal complaint with the Israel Police against a senior official in the Degel HaTorah faction. Leitner alleges severe incitement, threats, and a campaign of persecution against his party and its supporters.
The complaint stems from a public post by Motke Bloy, a prominent educator and senior figure within Degel HaTorah. According to the Haredi Public Party, Bloy published the names and addresses of some of their activists, labeling them "families of rebels." The party leadership claims this action effectively "permitted the shedding of blood" of those who identify with their movement.
Sources close to the Haredi Public Party stated that the events have escalated beyond political discourse, with reports of a genuine wave of persecution in recent weeks. This alleged persecution includes harm to livelihoods and children of party supporters.
Leitner stated, "A few minutes ago, I filed a complaint with the Israel Police against Motke Bloy... Bloy, who distributed the addresses of party activists, calling them 'rebels,' has permitted the shedding of blood of every Haredi man and woman identified with the Haredi Public Party, something that could lead to physical harm, God forbid. Our supporters have been fired from their jobs. Parents of pure children received messages that their children would be expelled from educational institutions, and letters of threats and slander are constantly being sent."
