The taxi driver who drove Attorney Hodak to a conference in Eilat: "He threatened to shoot me if I supported the legal reform" | Israel Hayom

"They threatened to shoot me if I support the legal reform, it's an Israeli ISIS organization":

the storm surrounding the lawyer, against whom the police recommended opening an investigation, does not subside.

After the inciting statement of Attorney David Hodak at the bar conference in Eilat, that he will not hesitate to fight with arms if the legal reform is passed, now the taxi driver who drove him to the conference says that Attorney Hodak threatened his life.

Menachem Butavia, the taxi driver who drove Attorney Hodak to the bar conference in Eilat, claims in an interview with 103FM that Hodak threatened to shoot him if he supported the legal reform: "I was shocked, it was hard for me to even react, I almost got off the road and turned my head towards him.

I am ready to testify in a polygraph.

This is an Israeli ISIS organization."

Last week, the police recommended to the prosecutor's office to approve the opening of a criminal investigation against the lawyer David Hodak due to his threatening and inciting statement.

During all hours that day, Hodak's words were examined by the investigation and intelligence division of the police.

Attorney Hodek said at a conference in Eilat that took place last week, and because of the same statements he made there, an investigation will be opened against him: "I don't understand where Benjamin Netanyahu and Riv Levin get the courage to even make such a proposal. I have decided that I will not live one day under a dictatorship, and if necessary fight For this - I will fight.

The government does not understand what mud it is getting into.

People are ready to fight with weapons and everyone is shocked if you say such a thing.

"If I have to get there and if they drag me there, that's what I will do. I will not leave the country and I will not live in a dictatorship. They are going after it with all their might and we will oppose it with all our might, no matter what."
