- ** 8. ISRAEL TO CARRY OUT DNA TESTING
-
- Health Minister Yehoshua Matza has decided to carry out
DNA testing in
- Israel for the Yemenite children. The decision was made
after a
- recommendation to this effect by an FBI specialist in
DNA testing, who
- visited Israel this week. Atty. Rami Tzuberi, who has
represented
- several families in their search for their missing relatives,
said that
- he does not object to such testing, as long as it is
not carried out in
- the National Forensic Institute or by the Ministry of
Health, "following
- our previous experience with them in the testing of Margalit
Omeisi and
- her daughter Tzila
- Levine." {ARUTZ 7 5/12 C|P}

- ** 8. NEW EVIDENCE IN YEMENITE CHILDREN AFFAIR
-
- The Makor Rishon weekly journal published documents today
which were
- removed from the Tel Aviv District Court Archives.
-
- The documents reveal involvement of then establishment
figures in the
- forging of birth and adoption certificates belonging
to Yemenite
- children who were given over for adoption against the
will of their
- parents.
-
- Amongst the official documents is a court order which
retroactively
- changed the name in a snatched Yemenite child's birth
certificate. Other
- documents show clearly the measures taken to blur the
original identity
- of the Yemenite children who were kidnapped from their
parents. {ARUTZ 7
