Court bans Australian from leaving Israel for 8000 years because of alimony

Israel is a very small state, but it takes care of its citizens the best of all. The law of the country is especially strict for those who try to evade their parental responsibilities. 44-year-old Australian Noam Huppert (Noam Huppert), who owes his Israeli wife and children alimony, according to a court decision, will remain in Israel until 9999. A lot? If anything, no one takes away from a careless father the right to repay a multimillion-dollar debt to the family earlier. Then he will be able to go home with a clear conscience a couple of hundred years earlier.

The Jerusalem Post newspaper reported that the malicious alimony defaulter Huppert owed $3.34 million (246 million rubles). And this is as of 2013, when the court banned him from leaving the country. A man must pay each of his children 5,000 new shekels (120 thousand rubles) per month until they reach the age of 18.

In Israel, it is better for a foreigner to part with his wife in a good way. There is a widespread discriminatory practice in the country to punish with a ban on the departure of citizens of other countries who divorce Israeli women. If the separating couple fails to peacefully agree on the amount of alimony or the spouse flatly refuses to pay, the woman goes to court.

An Israeli woman can request a ban on her husband's departure from the authorities. At the same time, the law is almost always on her side. Director Sorin Luca is making a film about this problem. The documentary is called "Without the right to leave". He told reporters about how debtors are treated:

The situation is so serious that even the US State Department reacted to it. The agency's website urges citizens of the country to be careful when tying the knot in Israel.

The Israeli authorities are generally famous for their innovation in the development of laws. For example, in this country they decided to punish not prostitutes, but their clients.
