Meir Ettinger being arrested.

Jewish activists Meir Ettinger and Evyatar Slonim, who were placed in administrative detention two months ago, have been transferred to a security wing in Eshel prison down south, according to Galei Tzahal.

Mordechai Meir, who was arrested a week before them, was not moved, due to a court order preventing his transfer.

The authorities decided to move the three boys because they were afraid that Ettinger, Slonim and Meir were influencing other Jewish prisoners with their strong ideological beliefs.

To best public knowledge, the three young men haven’t been charged with anything specific, and according to their Honenu lawyer, the primary “proof” the police brought against them in a closed court hearing, were ideological articles they had openly posted on their blogs.

The police suspect the three were involved in “nationalistic” acts.

Ettinger is the grandson of the late Rabbi Meir Kahane HY”D.
