Translated from Hebrew
What does the bill do?
The proposal allows a court to issue an order restricting the place of residence, work and study of a person convicted of a terrorism offense, if the court is convinced that frequent encounters with the victim of the offense may cause them psychological harm. The restrictions will be set for a period not exceeding three years, and they will apply to an area around the victim's place of residence, work or study. A request to impose restrictions can be filed by the victim themselves, the Attorney General, a police or military prosecutor, or a social worker on behalf of the court. The proceeding will include a hearing at which the matter is to be discussed, and an expert may be appointed to assess the possible psychological harm.
