(Hai Fe) - A violent attack took place on the night of Sunday 15/9/24 on the Matron night line in Haifa, when an inspector of the "Superbus" company was attacked by four passengers. This, after he demanded that they put out cigarettes they were smoking on the bus. The attack, which took place At 2:30 in the morning near Ben Zvi Street, the inspector ended up with bruises in his eye, who was attacked with fists by one of the passengers, while his friends joined in the attack.
The police arrived at the scene quickly and arrested the four attackers. The difficult event once again reveals the daily reality facing public transport workers in Israel, who have to deal with increasing cases of violence.
"A few crazy people are enough to endanger everyone"
The bus inspector who was attacked, T., recounts in pain:
"It's been two days since I've been sitting at home bleeding from the eye. All this because I asked the passengers to respect others and not smoke on the bus? I love my job and the passengers. When I was attacked, other passengers came to my aid. They are the sane majority, but a few crazy people are enough to destroy our work and endanger all of you."
This is not the first case of violence that T has experienced, as about two years ago he was also attacked by passengers, in an incident in which his nose and ribs were broken. that we became rags in front of the passengers."
Events of this type are a serious warning sign for the public transportation system in Israel, which continues to face increasing levels of violence against its employees. The demand to improve their protection systems and to change the policy towards violence in public transportation is becoming more urgent than ever.
"The attack on public transport workers endangers human life"
Yossi Ozan, Chairman of the Board of Inspectors at Superbus:
"The public transport workers feel disrespected, especially the inspectors. Most of the assault cases in the matron in the past year were against inspectors. Attacking the public transport workers endangers human life - drivers, inspectors and passengers. The attack happened while driving, next time such an attack could lead to the loss of control of the driver."
"There must be recognition and punishment of attackers accordingly"
Itai Cohen, head of the transportation branch for employees:
"An inspector who does his duty as a public servant and for the benefit of maintaining public order on the bus, finds himself attacked. Unfortunately, a person who serves the public continues to receive rejection from the state as a public servant. In order for there to be a public service for passengers, there must be recognition and punishment of attackers accordingly."
"We call on the police to bring the attackers to justice"
From the Superbus company it was delivered to Lai Fah:
"Superboss takes the incident very seriously and condemns violence of any kind towards its employees and in general. We support and accompany the inspector in front of all the relevant parties while fully cooperating with the Israel Police, and call on them to bring the attackers to justice and are confident that this will be done."
Return security guards to every matron.
There is no tolerance for violence.
A role holder should not be beaten
Because doing the job.
poor
An artist who will feel good
Quick Recovery
Must have 2 inspectors together, especially at night! Preferably a black belt in karate
Not justifying the violence in any way, God forbid, just offering another side to the discussion - I immediately recognized the inspector who was attacked even though half of his face is hidden because I filed a complaint against him in the past for verbal assault. I was having an anxiety attack because of a fault in the multi-line which proved to be a fault, I explained to him that I have severe OCD and he called me mentally ill and retarded while I cried and other compliments that I will not repeat. In addition, he stood next to me demonstratively when I begged him to give me some spice because I can't breathe. Everything is photographed and documented, so I suggest you take his claim that he loves the passengers with a limited guarantee.
Punishments immediately for a year in prison and a fine to pay because today you produced and tomorrow on another lake. It is forbidden to wake up. Penalty calculated twice. Why doesn't an inspector go with a pepper spray weapon and a shocker who will paralyze them send them without a weapon in his hand. This is how the bullies understand!!!
They criminals encountered Inspector Light
There must be a tear gas monitor, a stunner or a gun had to neutralize the criminals,
The second problem is the court, which will release the criminals and even allow the police to take the inspector's protective equipment and briefly interrogate him
State of Chelm
All three must receive a fine instead. Smoking is not allowed on the bus or in the matron
smoking on a bus or in a matron?
In my opinion, build a passenger-proof cabin
and also equip the drivers
Pepper spray for protection, against thugs.
A prison sentence of several years for each of the attackers not to give up
When we have a failed legal system that lets such criminals go, this is what happens
Only comprehensive legal reform.
There are no such phenomena in any country, this is because of a revolving door and the lack of deterrence in our failed justice system.
There is no connection
