Eitan Biran case, the only survivor of the Mottarone tragedy. The maternal grandparents of the 6-year-old boy filed an appeal with the Israeli Supreme Court. “We hope that the Supreme Court justices will address this unprecedented case and order that Eitan remain in Israel, as her parents intended,” the note read. “I disagree that I took Eitan illegally. I am sure I abide by the law and do what is legal,” Shmuel Peleg, Eitan’s maternal grandfather, told Not the Arena. “I think Eitan knows what happened, he asked once, twice to call his mom. I explained to him that mom and dad are looking down on him and he stopped asking. He doesn’t talk to anyone, nor to at home or on the phone even when he looks at the photos, he doesn’t talk about this “, the man said.” I don’t know how to explain such a misfortune – he continues – It is certain that for a 6-year-old child, losing his family it’s a huge disgrace. We do what we can to surround him with warmth and love. I’m sorry Eitan is not with me. I am allowed to meet him with my family a few hours a week and in these moments I feel I have let him down. He was. happy in the first month with his family at my house, he felt good. And I’m sorry to say that at the moment they are preparing him to get him back to Italy “.
