An indictment was filed Sunday against Bashar Suaed and Majd Araba, both 20 from Shefa-Amr, for the premeditated murder of Hadi Sawaed, according to N12 reports. The killing, stemming from an ongoing blood feud between rival groups in the city, involved ambushing the victim at a gas station and shooting him dozens of times at close range. The two were also charged with ensuring his death by continuing to fire after he fell.
The indictment, reported by N12, provides the first detailed account of the murder of Hadi Sawaed in Shefa-Amr. According to the charge sheet, Bashar Suaed and Majd Araba conspired with others to kill Sawaed as part of a long-running family feud. The victim was ambushed near a gas station close to his home, shot dozens of times from close range, and then shot again after falling to ensure his death. This case was previously reported by The Zioneer (Sun 13:33 Jerusalem) as solved by Lahav 433, with a pending indictment. The motive remains an ongoing conflict between the Sawaed and Khalidi crime families, which has claimed dozens of victims in the city. The two suspects are in custody pending legal proceedings.
