Accused paedophile Malka Leifer has lost an appeal challenging her extradition to Australia at the Supreme Court of Israel, clearing the way for her to stand trial after a six-year legal saga.
The Supreme Court justices said that the ruling finalises “the decision of the appellant as extraditable” to stand trial in Australia.
Israeli Justice Minister Avi Nissenkorn praised the court’s decision and said he would sign the extradition order immediately.
“After long and tormenting years, the time has come to do justice with Leifer’s victims,” he wrote on Twitter.
