After ZAKA chairman Yehuda Meshi Zahav tried to end his life and his condition is currently defined as humane - in the "Fact" system and Request 12, it was decided after long deliberations to broadcast tonight (Thursday) the investigation into him. The investigation is supposed to deal with his sexual assaults and the silence mechanism he conducted with the police. "Fact" man Eyal Gonen tweeted that the investigation will be broadcast after the news "because we need to hear and see the real victims of this affair (and also understand why the police turned a blind eye for so many years)".



Request officials told Walla! Culture that many of the complainants begged the channel to broadcast the program, and despite the deliberation and the difficult decision it was decided to broadcast also "against the background of the media's duty to reveal the truth".



Earlier today, mixed reactions appeared in the media and on the network regarding the "fact" investigation, which also included criticism and incitement against the program. Asherat Dayan Mualem, an employee of Network 13 who also serves as a paramedic from the Rescue Union, who arrived at the home of Meshi Zahav in Givat Zeev after trying to end his life, called for not publishing the investigation in "Ovda". "This crime and this aggression in which they came out in this interrogation about him even before he even had a trial and before there was anything," she said, "is a crime, it is a crime. him".



In addition, severe incitement against "fact" and the media appeared in the networks today, following which the journalists' organization stated that it "stands by investigative journalists who do professional work for the public interest, while complying with the rules of ethics.A direct line connects incitement and accusations on social media as we have witnessed in recent hours and physical violence against journalists as was the case tonight in Jerusalem.

The program received additional support from the media woman and former Labor Party chairman Shelly Yachimovich, who wrote on Twitter: "Let us know when it is allowed to publish an investigation into scum that ruined the lives of countless women and children.

When they are alive ('You ruined his life'), when they are dead ('He can no longer defend himself'), or when they are trying to commit suicide and bother to tell the whole world that it is 'because of the investigation'.

Go Ilana. "



Even before the Keshet decision was made, Racheli Gottlieb Rushgold, one of the founders of the "Do Not Shut Up" movement that fights sexual abuse in the ultra-Orthodox world, posted a public appeal to Ilana Dayan and the "Fact" system on Facebook, urging them to broadcast the research she contributed to its preparation. "For more than a month now, we have been working closely, for hours on end for one common goal - to bring the truth to light and purify the world," she wrote to her, "This shaky morning I am sitting in the family home of one of Yehuda Meshi Zahav's victims. Indescribable. This brave victim is dismantled and cries non-stop: 'Today Judah murdered me for the second time'. This is what is said here over and over again. All that matters to this hero is one thing: to bring the truth to light. It is part of his healing journey after dozens Years of suffering. This article is a cure !! It is a cure for the other victims of Yehuda Meshi Zahav. And who like us knows how inconceivable their scope is.And they have been paying for his actions for the last decades. This article is a cure for every victim and victim wherever they are. This article is a healing for the whole world. Gone are the days when we are afraid to go upstairs and talk about what we went through and demand justice. And no matter what the status of the one who hurt us, and how much power he gained. I've been in touch with many casualties since this morning who are begging me to work for one cause. That the article will be broadcast. "Later in the post, Gottlieb Rushgold quoted another victim who wrote to her, saying:" In the name of many victims and rivers of blood of people affected by Judea Silk Gold, please work to ensure that the investigation is broadcast so that they do not shy away from the system. It must come to light. "I've been in touch with many casualties since this morning who are begging me to work for one cause. That the article will be broadcast.

In an interview with Golan Yokfaz and Anat Davidov on 103fm yesterday, "Fact" presenter Ilana Dayan said: "It slowly becomes clear how many people knew. I do not remember working on such a story with such a degree of vulnerability and casualties."

Dayan said that they started the article on gold silk even before they knew about his actions, following his winning the Israel Prize.

"I am in front of him and I do not know anything, and in retrospect I understand that he knew that the affair was about to explode in Haaretz. He already knew that there were people who managed to break the silence around him. Suddenly I understand why that night when I rode with him he did not agree to enter Mea Shearim with me. Because he knows that in the ultra-Orthodox neighborhoods for years they knew. "



"One of the things we reveal in the article is the depth of the connection with the police and the strength of the connections he had," Dayan added. "I can not tell you if he received hermetic immunity from the police. We know there was a deep connection, and we know that investigations about him have failed and melted down, for all sorts of reasons. When you understand people's fear of talking, both then and today. A young man sits in front of me and explains how It never occurred to him to tell even his parents. "



"One of the things that fascinated me about his character was his violent past as a member of the Haredi community. The man who set fire to Bar Ilan Street, and the demonstrations in Jerusalem and the chastity guards, and today I look at this violent past differently. "

In March 2021, Golden Silk was selected as the recipient of the Israel Prize for a special contribution to society and the state.

Following the announcement of his election, the Haaretz newspaper published testimonies of those who described that he had sexually assaulted them.

Meshi Zahav denied the details, but suspended himself from the ZAKA leadership and also waived the Israel Prize.



Even before an official investigation was opened, Meshi Zahav arrived on his own initiative at the unit's offices to answer the suspicions against him, but the police denied his request. About the assault and sexual exploitation on his part, and since then many more testimonies have accumulated.The evidence



details that Golden Silk used, ostensibly, to systematically exploit his status over many years to impose himself on the victims.According to the investigation, members of the modest society Police - who had difficulty convincing the victims to testify against him.About a week after the investigation was published, a man claiming to have been attacked by Gold while he was a minor filed the first complaint against him with the police.
