ynet reports this morning that a deputy mayor suspected of sex offenses is set to be released from detention after being confronted with the complainant. The deputy mayor was arrested earlier this month on suspicion of committing sex offenses against a municipal employee, as previously reported by i24NEWS and covered by The Zioneer. His defense attorneys have called the allegations a 'blood libel' and extortion, claiming the complainant sent him a selfie from the shower, according to a ynet report on August 6. The Zioneer has reported that the suspect is Yolan Cohen, a former Knesset member. The specific circumstances of the release decision have not been detailed.
