Dror Adani

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Dror Adani was convicted with Yigal Amir and Hagai Amir in conspiring to murder Israel Prime Minister Yitzhak Rabin. He was also convicted for conspiring to kill Palestinians, illegal weapon production and illegal weapon possession.

At the time, Dror Adani studied at a yeshiva in the Israeli West Bank settlement Bet Haggai. In his verdict it is mentioned that Adani turned to a rabbi to receive an opinion that Yitzhak Rabin can be killed under the "din rodef" halakhic law, which allows for example abortion when a mother's life is in danger by her pregnancy. He received a negative response.

Dror Adani served his prison term in the Beersheba prison "Ohale Kedar". Throughout his sentence and his term he kept denying the charges of which he was convicted. In 2000 his request to be released after 2/3 of his prison term failed. Instead he was released in July 2002 after completing his entire term. Upon his release he called himself the "Dreyfus of 2000". He told the press he intended to get married and have children. He would keep away from politics in the future. [1] [2]
