Man Murdered in Yerushlayim Yeshiva

A man in his 60s died Monday evening, after being hospitalized following an apparent attack late last week.

The victim had been living at a yeshiva in the Beit Yisrael neighborhood, near Meah Sharim, in Jerusalem.

Police are investigating the man’s death as a murder case, and have arrested one suspect.

The suspect, a man from the town of Mevaseret Tzion, west of Jerusalem, had also been staying at the yeshiva in question at the time of the incident.

Forensics teams were dispatched to the yeshiva, where they collected evidence suggesting the victim was in fact murdered.

Authorities then identified and arrested the suspected murdered, a man in his 40s.

The suspect is scheduled to be brought before a Jerusalem court Tuesday for an extension of his arrest.

According to what I saw at the Kikar website, 1) the institution is not a regular yeshiva, rather a school for penitents (baalei teshuvah),some of which have rough backgrounds, and revert to them on occasion, and 2) the victim was beaten and then died, so it was not necessarily intentional murder.

May Hashem protect us.

Man in his 60's living at a yeshiva? Obviously not a typical situation. Suspect in his 40's?

When people think of a yeshiva, they think of younger people. This obviously is something different.

University researchers mechaven to gedolei Eretz Yisroel who wrote the same thing with a different choice of words that was actually even more shtark than this. Chaval that a tiny nutjob minority has hijacked the entire Agudah-Torah Umesorah and anywhere else they have managed to pull this con job.
