"Get" in hi-tech era. Divorce by means of I-phone

After years of being an Aguna, a woman was zoche to receive her get by means of a wise phone, as reported by "Israel Today" newspaper.

Eight years ago, the wife, who is in her forties, wished to get divorced from her husband who ran away overseas and left her an Aguna.

The Beis Din employed private detectors and this week it found out that he is hospitalized in the Yoseftal hospital in Eilat.

The Beis Din asked the police to guard him for fear that he might run away until they arrive, and then they convinced him to give a get to his wife.

"One mustn't delay with these things, this is a very urgent matter. He can suddenly get up and run away, and therefore we had to hold the ceremony as soon as possible", explained a factor of the Beis Din.

After consulting with the Chief Rabbi Hagr"s Amar, the Beis Din in Be'er Sheva organized the get by means of watching the man in Eilat on an I-phone.
On Thursday, the wife got the signed get, and a factor in the rabbinical Beis Din said that "one must emphasize that his is a solution which is only for an emergency case".
