- Singer Ofer Levi is banned from internet use until November 3rd amid an incitement probe.
- The court partially granted police's request, limiting the ban to five additional days.
- Levi is being investigated for alleged incitement to violence based on a video.
- The Holon police are conducting the criminal investigation.
- Enforcement measures for the internet ban were not detailed in the court protocol.
An Israeli court has imposed a special restriction on singer Ofer Levi, prohibiting him from using the internet until November 3rd as part of an investigation into allegations of incitement to violence. The police had requested an extension of this ban for 15 days, but the judge granted a partial approval, limiting the restriction to five additional days.
The court's decision states that Levi is forbidden from accessing the internet until November 3rd at 12:00 PM. This means the ban will last for a total of five days beyond the initial period, falling short of the police's request for a 15-day extension.
The protocol of the hearing did not detail the surveillance methods to enforce the internet ban, nor did it explicitly restrict the use of the internet by Levi's managers. The investigation is being conducted by the Holon police station after officers reviewed a video, and a criminal investigation was opened with approval from the State Attorney's Office.
The investigation into Levi stems from a video where he allegedly called for the execution of left-wing individuals.
