ISRAEL -- A 29-year-old man called 'D' has filed a complaint of sexual abuse against a leading Rabbi. D, had informed a newspaper that he had turned to Rabbi Elon in the nineties for guidance and was abused by him on numerous occasions.

An internet site called Takana, a sexual abuse forum to prevent corruption within the religious-Zionist area said in an announcement that "Elon is suspected of sexual harassment & was suspended from educational and rabbinical activities" in 2006

Since Tuesdays report in the Yedioth Ahronoth, further claims of alleged abuse has been brought against Elon with more complaints from youths and parents. On Wednesday Ynetnews said all files will be handed to the police.
