A former prisoner developed a halachic dialogue with a minor in a shul in Modi'in Illit. After he gained his trust, he brutally attacked him in the bathroom!
The detention of a suspect in the aggravated assault of a minor in Modi'in Illit was extended in court until tomorrow, after a prosecutor's statement of intention to file an indictment and a request for his detention until the end of the proceedings was filed against him.
The suspect, a resident of the city who had been arrested in the past on suspicion of other assaults, violated the conditions of this parole, which included a ban on entering any shuls.
According to the report, the attack took place several weeks ago during Shabbos morning, when the suspect and the victim were in the shul.
Immediately upon receiving the attack details from the minor's parents, investigators from the Modiin Illit station began investigating the case, while testimony was taken before professionals due to the victim's young age.
The findings of the investigation reveal a particularly disturbing picture. It is suspected that during that Shabbat – before, during, and after the morning prayers – the suspect, a former prisoner, developed a dialogue with the minor on halachic matters. Thus, slowly, he gained the boy's trust and later attacked him in a toilet cubicle near the synagogue.
Among other things, apart from the serious criminal act, the suspect violated the conditions of his parole, which included a prohibition on entering the shul, conditions and restrictions of which he was well aware. It should be noted that the suspect was arrested in the past on suspicion of similar assaults, which raises serious concerns among law enforcement officials.
About a week and a half ago, during a detective activity by a youth division from the Modi'in Illit station and with the assistance of the Inspector of the Tzur Unit of the IPS, the suspect was located and arrested for police interrogation. His detention was extended at the request of interrogators from the Family Division from time to time, and during his interrogation period, evidence, testimonies and findings were formulated in connection with his actions.
