Ron Fersht, an Israeli Magician ,was arrested by the police for 5 hours after he did the Mona Lisa on A TV show.

The inventor ,Sagiv Levi, said that Ron stole the effect and didn't have TV rights to do it. Ron said it is belong to a German magician (so he stole from the German??)
Ron said that he got the puzzle from a friend.

This was on the newspaper. Maybe some of the Israeli magicians over here can tell us more?

As I've posted in two other forums (Shimi, did you really need to post it so many times? Once in one place really would have been more than enough!), the dispute between Sagiv Levy and the other magician (I believe his name is Nicolai Friedrich, but am not positive) is/was being arbitrated by Stan Allen.

Until the results of the arbitration are made public, I'd highly suggest refraining from making judgment/public accusations against one or the other of the parties involved; to speculate based on incomplete facts and unfounded allegations is irresponsible at best and libelous at worst.

Yeah, but isn't this the gossip area? And aren't incomplete facts and unfounded allegations kind of gossip's stock-in-trade?

This was on the Israeli newspapers. I saw it on TV as well.

Ron used the Mona Lisa as sold by Sagiv Levi. He said that he got it from a friend. He said that Sagiv copied it from the German guy. (He didn't wait for Stan Allen).

I ask: If you say it belongs to the German guy, why did you do it on TV?

This has nothing for the fight on the Mona Lisa.
