Knesset okays cops to stop and frisk without reasonable suspicion
Until now, the law only allowed frisking if police had sufficient reason to suspect the person was concealing a weapon and even then, according to a court definition, only if they saw a bulge in the targets clothing which suggested a knife or a gun, said MK Nissan Slomiansky (Jewish Home), chairman of the Knesset Constitution, Law and Justice Committee.
Now, police officers will have the right to search any individuals body, clothes and bags even if there is no reason to suspect the person is carrying a weapon.
Police will be able to frisk passersby if they have a reasonable suspicion they are about to carry out an act of violence against another. A reasonable suspicion is defined as a person in a public place acting in a bullying manner, including verbal violence, or threats, or acting in another intimidating or frightening manner.
A temporary provision, valid for a year, allows police to frisk even without reasonable suspicion, on the basis of fear that the person intends to carry out a terror attack.
