Military police during night of 14 Sivan (Sunday to Monday) arrived twice in Yeshivas Tifrach to arrest an avreich who failed to report for military service.
The incident began at 11:00PM when military police arrived with Israel Police, a large force, all to arrest the AWOL avreich who learns in the Sephardi yeshiva. Attempts to arrest failed as he was not there.
The force returned later in the night in the hope of apprehending him but to their disappointment, he was not to be found. Dozens of avreichim gathered within minutes after they arrived for a second time and it was during the ruckus police detained one of the rebbes in Rav Sofer’s yeshiva. Persons present explain he was arrested simply for protesting efforts to arrest the avreich.
