Tal Yinon Dardik released as court finds detention grounds insufficient
Prosecutors sought conditions tying Dardik’s release to a revised military order, but the court rejected the request and ordered him freed.
The Jerusalem Magistrate's Court has ordered the immediate release of settler Tal Yinon Dardik, finding insufficient grounds to keep him detained over charges that he violated an earlier military restriction order. Judge Amir Shaked released Dardik without imposing additional conditions through the criminal proceeding, noting that he remains subject to a separate military order barring him from nearly all of the West Bank and requiring him to report regularly to police.
Dardik is suspected of involvement in attacks against Palestinians and other nationalist-motivated offenses, but he denies these allegations and has not been charged over them. The court's ruling ends Dardik's detention but does not allow him to return freely to the West Bank or invalidate the security establishment's assessment that restrictions against him are warranted.
