He took to Israel a grandson who survived the fall of the cable car in Italy. He’s a kidnapping suspect

Pelega, who is the father of Biran’s mother, is being investigated by the police on suspicion of kidnapping. He is prohibited from leaving the house until the end of the investigation.

Relatives from his father’s side who live in Italy claim that the boy was taken away without their knowledge. They therefore demand that he return to Italy.

In 2003, Peleg was convicted of violence against his wife. He confessed and was sentenced to a 15-month suspended sentence and a fine.

In an interview with Israeli television, he said that Eitan is now happy and surrounded by his family. “It’s where it belongs – at home in Israel,” he said.

Eitan’s family lived in Italy at the time of the disaster. After being released from a Turin hospital after several weeks of treatment, an Italian court entrusted the boy to his aunt from his father’s side, Aya Birano Nirkova, who lives near Pavia.

She and her husband want to raise Eitana, even though they have two daughters. An aunt from her mother’s side in Israel showed interest in adopting the boy.

Peleg admitted that he took Eitana from Italy in a rented car to Switzerland, from where they flew. “We left completely legally, I only follow what is good for the child,” Peleg said.

The Pavia Public Prosecutor’s Office has announced that it will work to return the child to Italy in accordance with the Hague Convention on the Rights of the Child. Peleg was accused by the prosecutor’s office of kidnapping.

“Hague? I’m a grandfather, a boy’s grandfather. I don’t know anything about The Hague, “Peleg said in an interview with Israeli television. He waived the opportunity to obtain the right to care for the boy in Italian courts.
