opacity: On Sunday evening, Mindy Klein, an ultra-Orthodox resident of Beitar Illit, boarded a bus line 292 of the Kavim company from Jerusalem to Beitar Illit.
Klein carried two small babies in her arms, and was on her way to place them in the back seats so they would not fall when the bus driver began to ride.
At the station after, when the troubled mother had not yet stopped attacking Rabbi Kav, an inspector of the company came up. The inspector demanded that she present the Rabbi Kav card, did not think twice, and submitted a report for her in the amount of NIS 100.
Klein, and the passengers on the bus, tried to explain that the ultra-Orthodox mother had only just boarded with her small children and therefore had not yet had time to pay – but the inspector indignantly ignored what was happening.
In a conversation with Haredim 10, Mindy Klein says: “I boarded a bus from Jerusalem to Beitar yesterday with two little girls and two babies. The driver drove straight after we got on, so we had to sit in place.
“We left the station, I sat down, I seated the babies. At that moment there was a fire incident, and the driver creaked and a girl fell to the floor. I picked up the two-year-old girl, and immediately took out a wallet to pay. As soon as I could I took out a wallet.
“I did not even see that there was a critic. No matter, I wanted to pay. Not related to the critic at all. The visitor boarded within one stop. I got on at the Viznitz Rebbe’s corner corner contract station, at the next station he fined me.
“I issued him the solemn ID card, because I wanted to explain to him: Understand, I just got up, and immediately went to pay. All is well. He gave me a report after I paid, not after I did not pay. The problem is that I paid after I settled down. “
Did you try to explain?
“I told him I had just come up. The other bus passengers told him: Listen, she just got on, she immediately went to pay. He also said nothing. There is a reasonable time frame that a man can pay, let alone a woman who comes up with babies.
“I had to sit down, there was no other option. I spoke with Kavim. They said you would file an appeal. There is opacity here. They may want to fix the world, but it’s opacity. Examine the case – not honest to bring a report. It seems that there is a goal to do it. “
Is the goal to distribute reports to the ultra-Orthodox?
“This is what it looks like, or in Beitar – in the other Haredi city, they have no more options, there is persecution here. He wanted to bring a report on the children as well, but I do not see the report. I don’t know if he also wrote about the children. “
Kavim stated in response to Haredim 10: “The case is under investigation by the relevant parties. In any case, any fine can be appealed, as it appears on the report itself.
