The second charge deals with the offense of non-acceptance of authority.
"During 2019, on several different and numerous occasions the defendant refused to accept the authority of his commanders, to obey their instructions and to comply with the instructions of the authority," the Civil Service Commission argued.
According to the human resources guidelines of the Fire and Rescue Authority, there is no payment of wages to an employee who is not staying at the station and no wages are to be paid for the activities of the workers' committee, which must be done voluntarily.
The lawsuit states that this was even clarified to Ankuri in a conversation with the Haifa District Commander of the Tafser Fire Department, Arie Regev.
"Notwithstanding the foregoing," it read, "and notwithstanding the instructions given to the defendant in person, during 2019 the defendant used to go out during the shift for his various occupations, including meetings on committee matters, without request and in any case without obtaining permission for these departures."
It was also written that Ankuri even refused to attend several meetings with one of his superiors, meetings that were supposed to deal with his return to operational competence.
In another case, in August 2019, Ankuri went on vacation abroad without coordination and approval from his superiors at the fire department.
