01 · THE DISPATCH

A Beersheba police officer was indicted Wednesday for assaulting and threatening a female colleague at the station. According to the indictment, the incident began in May 2024 when officer Oshar Amar, 28, started a romantic relationship with a 24-year-old officer in her mandatory service. When rumors of a second relationship surfaced, the woman confronted him; the conversation escalated physically. Amar is alleged to have choked her with both hands and threatened her, saying: 'You're bringing up things that won't leave for years — I was a cruel person, what you've seen is the tip of the iceberg.' The indictment charges him with assaulting a partner and making threats. The station has not commented publicly. The case is distinct from a similar incident earlier this month (The Zioneer, June 10), in which a civilian was indicted for threatening a police officer in Kiryat Bialik.
