At the end of a trial that lasted many years and in which dozens of witnesses testified, while submitting hundreds of documents, defendants 8 and 9 were convicted in this verdict, each in accordance with the offenses detailed above. In addition, other defendants were convicted along the way, as mentioned at the beginning of this judgment. Defendants 20-23 were acquitted of what was attributed to them in the indictment.
It is not possible to conclude this process without commenting that it seems that the criminal proceeding cannot be the only or main way in the struggle to eradicate this phenomenon. The nature of the criminal proceeding is to examine the acts retroactively, while the state's role in such an event, which it has defined as the largest garbage hazard in the country, is to act in other ways at its disposal to stop this phenomenon and not to be satisfied with punishing the offenders retroactively. Among other things, in view of the fact that when the matter is examined on the criminal level, the required threshold is higher than that found on the administrative level.
The right to appeal to the Central-Lod District Court within 45 days.
