Malka Leifer release angers supporters of alleged abuse victims

Supporters of the alleged victims of former Melbourne school principal Malka Leifer are angry that a Jerusalem court has decided to release her to home detention.

Ms Leifer is facing 74 charges of child sexual abuse in Victoria and is fighting her extradition.

She had recently been re-arrested by Israeli police and put in detention after they alleged she is faking mental illness.
