Family of Yehuda Meshi-Zahav say image of suicide note does not match ZAKA founder's handwriting.


Doctors at Shaare Zedek Medical Center in Jerusalem continue to fight for the life of Yehuda Meshi-Zahav, former chairman of the ZAKA organization, who attempted suicide in his home in Givat Ze'ev earlier Thursday.

Photographs of a note allegedly left by Meshi-Zahav circulated on social media. The note reads: "I am sorry. My punishment I have received already. Try to remember the good that I did; try to always remember what I forgot: 'There is an Eye that sees, an Ear that hears, and all your deeds are written in a Book.' (Ethics of the Fathers, 2:1 - ed.)."

Attorney Ephraim Damari and Meshi-Zahav's family claimed that the letter is a forgery. "This is a forged letter, fake news. We have manuscripts from Meshi-Zahav, in which neither the writing nor the signature is similar to those that appear in the letter," they stated,

Police opened an investigation against Meshi-Zahav, after allegations came to light in a report published by Haaretz. In that report, six accusers -both male and female - claimed Meshi-Zahav sexually exploited or assaulted them as far back as the 1980s.

Some of the accusers were minors at the time of the alleged assaults, others were adults.

The accusations against Meshi-Zahav were said to have been known among the Eida Haharedit, which he belonged to in his youth, but were not made known to the public when he began public activities outside the Eida Haharedit.
