The "Brothers and Sisters in Arms" organization has filed a criminal complaint against Ilan Bombach, the legal advisor for the Likud party. The complaint, filed with the Tel Aviv Magistrate's Court, accuses Bombach of defamation with intent to harm, based on his media statements on October 13 and 14. Bombach had alleged that the organization's activists were preparing to operate at polling stations in a manner that could compromise election integrity.
According to the complaint, Bombach claimed that the organization intended to deploy tens of thousands of activists at polling stations to disrupt the voting process. The organization asserts that these claims, which suggest an organized effort to undermine election fairness, are baseless and were made with the intent to damage its reputation and public activities.
Instead of seeking monetary damages in a civil suit, Brothers in Arms opted for a criminal complaint, a legal avenue allowing private individuals to accuse others of criminal offenses. The organization is requesting that Bombach be convicted under Section 6 of the Defamation Law, which pertains to defamation with intent to harm, carrying a maximum penalty of one year in prison. However, the court must first examine the elements of the offense, including the intent to harm, and consider any defense arguments before a conviction can be made.
