Ivan Sirbu, 22, responded through his new partner to allegations by the family of Linoy, 17, who died by suicide last week. He claims they had broken up before her death, denies physical, mental, and financial abuse, and says the parents are blaming him to deflect from their own responsibility. The statement was reported by journalist Daniel Amram.
The boyfriend of a 17-year-old girl from Rosh HaAyin who died by suicide last week has denied responsibility for her death, claiming the relationship had ended before her suicide and that the family's allegations of abuse are unfounded. In a response relayed through his new partner, also a minor, Ivan Sirbu, 22, said the parents are 'trying to clear themselves' by blaming him. He also denied physical, mental, and financial abuse, which the family had alleged in previous statements. The case has drawn public attention due to the age gap and the circumstances of the relationship. The family's original accusations were reported by The Zioneer on Sunday. Sirbu's response was published on the account of journalist Daniel Amram. No further details about the family's reaction have been reported.
