- •Suspects: Two friends of Eldar Dayan from Dimona
- •Suspicion: Murder
- •Detention extended by seven days—until August 12

What the Court Decided
The court granted the request to continue holding the two suspects in custody, but extended their detention by seven days. According to the source, the police had previously requested a 15-day extension.
Closed-Door Hearing
The hearing on the request to extend the detention was held behind closed doors. Therefore, the source does not present the arguments of the police and the defense, does not describe the evidence, and does not report the reasoning that guided the court.
What Is Still Unknown
The suspects’ names, the circumstances of the alleged murder, and Eldar Dayan’s role in the case are not detailed. The case number and the date on which the decision was issued were also not specified. A detention extension is a procedural measure and does not in itself mean that a person has been convicted.
What this means for you
The decision allows the police to continue the investigation while the suspects remain in custody until August 12. It is important for the public to distinguish between a detention extension during the investigation stage and a judgment: the question of guilt was not decided in this ruling.
