An investigation into the numerous allegations of rape and sexual assault against the founder of the ZAKA emergency service was reportedly in an advanced stage ahead of his apparent suicide attempt on Thursday.
Police planned to arrest Yehuda Meshi-Zahav at the beginning of next week, as a number of the cases being investigated are within the statute of limitations, Israeli television reports said.
According to the reports, there are dozens of additional complaints against Meshi-Zahav that are not within the statute of limitations but can be used as proof of his serial behavior.
Glasgow University has a total of £751,568 invested in companies linked to West Bank settlements.
SCOTTISH universities have shares worth more than £2 million in companies linked to settlements in the West Bank which are considered illegal under international law, The Ferret can reveal. Companies backed financially by Scots academic institutions include a bank which finances construction in the West Bank and major global financial institutions underwriting Airbnb, which has around 200 properties for rent in illegal Israeli settlements. Critics have raised concerns over these investments and called for divestment from some of the firms. The universities said in response they are fully committed to socially responsible investments while the banks all have policies to uphold human rights.
