The circumcision ceremony (brit mila) for the son of Yigal Amir is scheduled for 3:00 p.m. Sunday afternoon in the Rimonim Prison, where his father is incarcerated for the assassination 12 years ago of then-Prime Minister Yitzchak Rabin, for which he was convicted.

Despite vehement private and public calls on the government to refuse permission for Amir to attend his son's brit, the Tel Aviv District Court ruled last week the ceremony could be held in the prison were he is being held.
