Will retired chief Niso Shaham be released from prison today (Monday) and go free? In the Administrative Affairs Court in Nazareth, a hearing will be held today on the appeal filed by the state against the parole board's decision to deduct a third of the prison term imposed on Shaham.
If the court rejects the appeal - Shaham will be released immediately tomorrow from the Hermon prison.
In July, the Parole Committee next to Zalmon Prison decided on the early release of the sex offender, retired Superintendent Niso Shaham, despite the opposition to the release by the Prosecutor's Office and the Prisoner Rehabilitation Authority.

Shaham, whose last position in the police force was the commander of the Jerusalem district, was sent to serve ten months in prison for sexual offenses and breach of trust.
In January of this year, Shaham requested to hold another hearing on the Supreme Court's ruling, in which it was determined by the majority that he should be convicted of the crime of fraud and breach of trust due to his illicit relations with female police officers under his command and handling of their personal requests, but the President of the Supreme Court, Judge Ester Hayut, refused his request.
As mentioned, after the parole board accepted his request to deduct a third of his sentence, the attorney's office submitted a request to delay the execution of the release and appealed the decision.
This morning, as mentioned, it will be decided whether to release him.
