UK Amends law That Allows Arrest of ’’Israeli’’ Criminal Officials
British Ambassador to the Zionist entity Matthew Gould announced Thursday that the Queen of England has signed an amendment to a bill that will prevent the issuing of arrest warrants against "Israeli" officials.
"The Police Reform and Social Responsibility Act, which has now received Royal Assent, includes an important amendment to ensure that the UK's justice system can no longer be abused for political reasons," Gould said, claiming that "the change will ensure that people cannot be detained when there is no realistic chance of prosecution, while ensuring that we continue to honor our international obligations."
Gould called "Israeli" former foreign minister Tzipi Livni, who had an arrest warrant, issued against her on December 2009, and announced the news.
In an interview with "Israeli" "Ynet", Gould said "he believes the amendment will have a positive effect on the relations between UK and "Israel"."
The law that allowed issuing arrest warrants against foreigner criminals prevented several "Israeli" officers, including the so-called former Southern District Commander Major General Doron Almog and Head of the Intelligence Corps Major General Aviv Kochavi from entering Britain.
In the same context, the military secretary to "Israeli" Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, Yohanan Locker, had to cancel his trip to Britain due to his role in committing massacres against Gaza civilians during the "Israeli" aggression on the strip.
