The Assault and Release

According to the indictment, in late September the couple were with friends in a sukkah near the defendant's apartment in Bnei Brak. During an argument, the man allegedly pushed his partner, struck her with his fists and continued assaulting her while she was lying on the ground, after which a neighbor called the police. At 02:02, a police officer released the detainee to his home on the condition that he not contact the woman for five days.

Violation of the No-Contact Order

According to the prosecution's allegations, the man contacted his partner immediately after his release and brought her to his apartment. There, he allegedly dragged her by force into the bedroom, beat her all over her body, demanded that she have sex with him, and locked her in the room after she refused. The indictment also describes a threat of rape, strangulation, the throwing of a lit cigarette toward the eye area, and the pressing of the blunt side of a kitchen knife against her abdomen.

The Escape and Resulting Injuries

According to the indictment, the woman tried to leave several times, but the man caught up with her, covered her mouth and brought her back to the apartment. At around 17:30 the following day, she managed to reach her parents' home; she had fractures of the eye socket and nasal bones, serious facial injuries, and her left eye was completely closed. The defendant allegedly pursued her on an electric scooter, entered the family home and threatened to stab her father to death, kill her relatives and burn their car.

An Additional Incident and the Prosecution's Position

The indictment also cited an incident from July: the man allegedly forced his way into the family home and demanded 200 shekels, claiming that his partner owed him the money. Later, he allegedly took her brother's phone and pushed the woman's father down the stairs. The prosecution asked that the defendant remain in detention until the conclusion of the legal proceedings, citing his dangerousness and the renewed assault immediately after his release. The source does not state the court's decision on this request or how the criminal proceedings will conclude.

What this means for you

Release conditions, including a no-contact order, are binding, and their alleged violation may be taken into account when deciding whether detention should continue. At this stage, the events described represent the prosecution's account: the court will determine responsibility. The source does not provide a decision on the prosecution's request for detention until the conclusion of the proceedings.
