Member of Knesset Nava Boker (Likud) has sent Public Security Minister Gilad Erdan a request to allow Elor Azariya to receive a permit to carry arms because of threats he and his family have received from Hamas and Islamic Jihad, according to News 2.

Azariya recently finished a prison sentence for manslaughter in the death of a wounded Hamas terrorist in Hevron. MK Boker said he and his family were "subject to harassment and threats".
