About two weeks after the Israeli Family Court ruled that Eitan Biran, who survived the cable car disaster in which his family perished, will return to Italy to his aunt Aya Biran, Italy reports that an international arrest warrant has been issued against his maternal grandfather, Shmuel Peleg, accused of abducting little Eitan.

According to reports in Italy, an arrest warrant has also been issued against Peleg's driver, Gabriel Abutbul Alon.
They are accused of building a "plan" to abduct the six-year-old boy.
The request for arrest, according to the report, was forwarded to the Ministry of Prosecution in Milan - and from there it will be transferred to the State of Israel.
