Jewish community members call on Yeshivah Centre board to resign after child sexual abuse royal commission revelations
SHANNON DEERY HERALD SUN MARCH 02, 2015
MEMBERS of Melbourne’s Jewish community have called for the immediate resignation of the board at the disgraced Yeshivah Centre in the wake of a damning royal commission probe.
While several high-profile rabbis have already resigned from positions — including the nation’s top rabbi, Meir Shlomo Kluwgant – the management committee has escaped the same level of scrutiny.
Now an online petition, individually naming seven people, has called for the entire committee of management to resign.
“We the individuals & families of the Yeshivah community, together with members of the wider Jewish community, call for the immediate resignation of the members of the Committee of Management,” it says.
