On video: the protesters arrested in a protest against the legal revolution (Kirin Sagi)
The judge of the Tel Aviv Magistrate's Court rejected this morning (Thursday) the request of the police to keep two demonstrators away from demonstrations against the legal revolution for 15 days. The two, Avi Karni Kadish and Sherley Ayish, were detained yesterday for questioning during the protest that took place in Tel Aviv. According to the judge, the request of the police "is offensive in a way Disproportionate and too extreme for the fundamental right to demonstrate."
The two demonstrators were detained yesterday morning on Ayalon Road as part of a protest, and were released at the police station. As part of the conditions of their release, they were asked by the police not to show up for demonstrations for 15 days, but they refused this condition, and for this reason were forced to appear in court , which discusses the issue.

"I reviewed the investigation file and in fact the factual dispute between the parties is limited," Judge Yaron Gat noted in his decision.
"There is no dispute that the suspects did not resort to violence against anyone, and did not carry out actions that endangered another person, police officers or property. They did not resort to violence and did not threaten anyone. "As is known, the right
to demonstrate is a fundamental constitutional right of the first order, and therefore its restriction is as comprehensive as requested By the police it is reserved for extreme and unique cases," he continued. "Given the nature of the suspicions against the protesting suspects, the police's request disproportionately and excessively harms the fundamental right to demonstrate.
In the entirety of the data, including the personal data of the protesting suspects, I believe that it is enough to release them on the condition of signing a self-commitment."

According to one of the detainees, Carney, the police stopped them after they tried to go down to the Ayalon road.
"We obeyed all the policemen's instructions, there was no friction and they were very accommodating," he claimed.
"Suddenly at some point - now I understand that it was while Ben Gvir was in HML - they started kicking people out by force.
They just 'sampled' two of us, and because we were in a car they told us to stop on the side.
"We arrested, without an act of violence," he continued.
"We were arrested and last night after nine hours at the Jaffa station they decided to release us on the condition that we agree not to participate in demonstrations for 15 days, which is a right and an obligation. We did not sign."
According to him, the police "wanted to negotiate on how many days we are ready, so this morning we were summoned to the judge, who threw the police's request down the stairs. The right to demonstrate is a right we are fighting for."
