Dear All:

1) See report below from our leading attorney for Yoel Zev's case. The prosecution b"h did not appeal. This proves that the acquittal was based on powerful reasoning, giving little or no chance for the prosecution to succeed in revoking the acquittal at the high court.

2) Please daven for Yakov Yosef be Reizel's quick transfer to Israel. Feverish efforts to expedite the transfer procedure are ongoing - on several fronts - may Ha-shem help us fast.

3) I request whoever can type a letter of chizuk to Yakov Yosef, in Yiddish or Hebrew, should kindly do so without delay. A typed letter will be allowed into the prison quicker than a written one. Send your letters to bindinger@gmail.com. We will forward these immediately by email to our representative in Chiba, Japan.

Thank you,

Meilech Bindinger

On behalf of Rabbi CYD Weis, Aron Nezri, and R' Yaakov Bleich
