A Haredi man who was violently assaulted and robbed in a public park months ago says police have failed to arrest the suspect after three weeks, calling the situation a 'delusion.' The victim, classified as a draft deserter, has previously stated he cannot file a formal complaint for fear of being arrested himself.
A Haredi man who was the victim of a violent assault and robbery in a public park approximately two and a half months ago has posted a message stating that police have failed to arrest the suspect after three weeks. 'Three weeks and the police can't catch him… a delusion. We'll wait until he carries out his threat… maybe then they'll wake up,' he wrote.
The case, which The Zioneer has previously covered, highlights the legal limbo faced by Haredi men classified as draft deserters. The victim has stated he cannot file a formal police report because doing so would expose him to immediate arrest by military authorities. The suspect remains at large.
