"Shahar Dvir-Zeliger, a resident of an illegal West Bank settlement was sentenced to eight years in prison by the Jerusalem District Court, which had previously convicted him of membership in the so called “New Jewish Underground”, as opposed to the first Jewish Underground, which operated against Palestinians in the eighties. Most of the other members of the underground, like Dvir-Zeliger are extreme right wing ultra-orthodox West Bank settlers.
The underground was uncovered by the ISA two years ago, when several West Bank residents were arrested. Dvir-Zeliger initially cooperated with the authorities, leading them to underground arms caches, which the underground intended to use in attacks against Arabs.
He subsequently refused to continue cooperating, and recanted the testimony he had given implicating himself and others. Ballistic tests showed the weapons had been used in attacks on Palestinians."
