Success for the Task Force - Another law on the books!
We are happy to report the proposed law to disconnect telephone lines advertising prostitution was approved recently in its second and third readings!
The proposed "Blocking A Telephone Number In Order to Prevent The Commission of a Crime Law", written by the Task Force and promoted by MKs Merav Michaeli and Yulia Malinovsky, alongside a law proposed by Minister of Interior Security, Gilad Erdan, provide the police with a useful tool to battle the advertisements of prostitution scattered widely on Israel’s streets.
The approval of this law is an important step toward minimizing the organized exploitation of thousands of women in Israel and imposes a meaningful obstacle to those seeking to purchase sexual services and often brutally exploit these women.
