The Aryeh Schiff case: The State Attorney's Office has announced that it will not appeal its sentence Israel today

The state has decided not to file an appeal:

The Southern District Attorney's Office decided today (Thursday) not to file an appeal in the case of Aryeh Schiff, who in November last year shot dead a burglar in his home and in early November the district court sentenced him to nine months of reckless killing.

The two parties agreed on this offense after a mediation procedure between them, but the parties agreed on the punishment itself and argued freely.

The prosecution asked the court at the last hearings four to six years behind bars, which came as a great surprise to the defense, which was headed by Adv. Shashi Gaz.

In the final hearing held a month ago, the court chose a lenient sentence relative to Schiff, Judge Revital Yaffa-Katz, the district court president took into account his clean past, his contribution to the state and his personal life.

The prosecutor's office did not know whether to file an appeal, and only two days before the start of the sentence, they requested a stay of execution, this request was rejected by the court at the beginning of the month.

Not only did Schiff go through the "chain of enlistment at the IPS", he also actually began serving the sentence at the municipal kennel in Arad. The court rejected the request to delay the execution.

The representative of the State Attorney's Office, Adv. Yariv Tzri, argued at the hearing a week ago: "It is not right to expose the state to a situation in which foreign factors or considerations of initiation will constitute another consideration in a serious decision whether or not to appeal the sentence." In the soul as if he had not gone through enough in his life. "And today it can be said that this affair is over, Schiff will continue his service work and the state has finally accepted it.

Advocate Yosef Ackerman, director of the legal department at the "Up to Here" organization, responded to the prosecutor's office's decision not to appeal Aryeh Schiff's sentence:

The fact that citizens encounter situations in which they do not feel protected is a certificate of poverty for the Israel Police.

A 70-year-old man does not have to deal with masked rioters in the middle of the night.

The unfortunate case of Aryeh Schiff constitutes a warning sign and commissions to the general non-government throughout Israel and in particular in the southern region.

At the same time, the payment of a fine by Schiff to the family of the person who came to harm him and his property is a mockery of Rash. "
