The world watched on in horror this week as Polish officials determined the fate of 50-year-old Gavriel Lavi of Bnei Brak.

Lavi has been unjustly held in Polish prison for three years without trial after his identity was allegedly stolen and used for fraud. Rav Chaim Kanievsky was involved last year in efforts to secure Lavi a trial, which only came into fruition this month.

During his absence, Gavriel’s wife Sigalit was left to raise their four children alone.

The verdict of the long-awaited trial was that Lavi would be released, on the condition that a steep $150,000 fine be paid by Monday, June 10th. If the fine is not paid, the father of 4 will remain in prison indefinitely.
