Shai Parnasa

Shai Parnasa is a former commander of Ayalon Prison who has recently made headlines for alleging that he was pressured by National Security Minister Itamar Ben Gvir and senior officials within the Israel Prison Service (IPS) to grant improper benefits to Jewish security prisoners. Parnasa has filed a petition to the Supreme Court challenging his dismissal from the IPS, claiming it was unjust and motivated by his refusal to comply with the alleged pressures.
