High Court rules against mother seeking to take her sons to Israel

The Star

|

April 29, 2025

A MOTHER who is illegally in South Africa as her spousal visa has lapsed and is facing deportation was blocked by the Gauteng High Court, Johannesburg, from taking her two sons with her when she relocates to Israel.

- ZELDA VENTER

The father of the children, a lawyer, vehemently opposed his children’s relocation, and he told the court that he and his fiancée are able to provide a better home in South Africa for them. Some of his concerns included that due to Israel facing a lot of conflict and war, he also feared that once the children turned 18, they may be forced to join the Israeli army.

In turning down the mother’s application to take her sons with her to Israel, Judge Marcus Senyatsi remarked that compared to Israel, South Africa has no conscription laws and consequently, when they turn 18, they will continue to live as civilians as opposed to being soldiers in Israel.
