After being held for a couple of hours pending a court decision with regards to the extradition request from Israel, the Rav is a free man in Holland. The court has declined the request. After hearing both sides the Judge made this comment to the Rav "I am surprised to see how Israel treats such a great man like yourself", and said that there is nothing whatsoever which warrants an extradition to Israel, not only is there no reason for arrest, the Judge has not seen anything that even warrants an Israeli court hearing.
All are invited to thanksgiving prayer at the kotel tonight at 10:30. Afterwards celebration in the Yeshiva in the Old City.
Rabbi Berland will be speaking by telephone at the event.
