The High Court of Justice ruled Thursday that the section in the law that allows withholding government benefits from the parents of a minor imprisoned for security offenses is unconstitutional and violates their right of equality. The court gave the Knesset a year to address the problematic clauses in the 2015 National Insurance Law.
The amendment to the law stipulates that in the event a minor is convicted of a serious security offense, including stone-throwing, that was committed out of nationalistic motives or in connection with terrorist activity, any benefits his or her parents receive on the minor’s behalf are suspended while their child is in prison.
