Avishai Adana, who has accompanied the Teka family since the tragic event in which her son Salomon died and protest activists, today (Friday) referred to reports that the family would be distributed NIS 18 million and said: "They should not think that money buys a person's life."
"Money will not bring back Salomon. We want justice, and that's what we say from the first moment. Justice is that this officer who took a child's life would go to jail and sit behind bars for many years," Adana claimed.
"We demand a significant punishment for the sake of seeing and being seen, that such a case will never happen again."
"It seems to me that the amount they are talking about is almost exactly what they asked for so we have no problem with that and it totally shows that we are right in our claims, but it is a pity they did not ask for an astronomical amount to 'dismantle' the police or at least the station from which the policeman took a child's life. ", Adna added.
"As long as it does not interfere with the criminal trial and he goes to jail, and Salomon will be the last victim - then we have no problem with the compensation, that and dealing with it we leave to lawyers."

At the same time, the family's lawyers deny that an agreement or consensus has been reached on the sensitive matter, which is under negotiation. Adv. Eviatar Katzir, who represents the Taka family in the civil proceedings, told Walla!
"Unfortunately, this is an inaccurate knowledge. Negotiations are indeed at an advanced stage but are still ongoing. However, and this is important to emphasize, none of the parties involved, and the intention is also to the family of the deceased, did not give his final approval to settle the claim and were not replaced. "Draft or agreements as of today. The matter has not yet been closed as stated."
"The publication of the article at the present time and as it was published raises questions among us as to whether the person who leaked it might want to torpedo the conversation while hostile," the lawyer added.
"It seems that the leak of contacts came from an unclear agenda and we are sticking to it."
