Reform Group
Criticizes Police

Jerusalem (JTA) — An Israel-
based group of the the Reform
movement is criticizing the
Jerusalem police for failing to
find those responsible for mak-
ing telephone threats to the
movement's office.
The Israel Religious Action
Center, an agency of the World
Union for Progressive Judaism,
filed the complaints after com-
ing under a barrage of anony-
mous hate calls during the past
three months.
Police officials said they had
traced some of the calls to tele-
phones located near the Chasidic
yeshivas of Gur and Slonim in
fervently Orthodox areas of
Jerusalem.
The office's complaint comes
amid increased tensions between
fervently Orthodox groups and
more liberal streams of Judaism
that emerged after Orthodox par-
ties won 23 seats in the Knesset
and a strong role in the govern-
ing coalition.
Tapes of the threatening calls
were played on Army Radio.
"We will bomb you, destroy
your offices. Your fate will be
that of [Yitzhak] Rabin," said
one caller, referring to the as-
sassinated Israeli leader.
Knesset member Meir Porush,
leader of the fervently Orthodox
Agudat Yisrael Party, deplored
the calls but said he was sure
they had not been made by yeshi-
va students.
Anat Galili, the spokesperson
for the center, was critical of the
police for not arresting anyone
even though the first complaint
was filed more than three
months ago.
She noted that a caller mak-
ing telephone threats to Aharon
Barak, chief justice of the
Supreme Court, had been ar-
rested after just one day.
Mr. Barak received the
threats a month ago, after the
court issued a ruling that kept
a major Jerusalem thoroughfare
open on the Sabbath and
religious holidays. Orthodox
groups have held a series of of-
ten violent demonstrations
aimed at closing the street at
those times.
