01 · THE DISPATCH

Israeli police filed a prosecutor's statement last night against a Palestinian resident of Hebron in his 60s, accused of sexually abusing his daughter over many years. The investigation was prompted by a complaint filed by the victim, a woman in her early 20s from Jerusalem.

According to a report by Inbar Twizer (N12), investigators held a confrontation between the father and daughter. During the encounter, police officials noted the suspect showed "great difficulty controlling his impulses." The man has been in custody for some time, with his remand periodically extended by a court to allow the investigation to continue.

As The Zioneer reported earlier at 10:05 Jerusalem, the arrest was initially made after the daughter's complaint; the filing of a prosecutor's statement marks a formal step toward an indictment. Police confirmed they intend to charge the suspect. The case highlights ongoing efforts by Israeli law enforcement to address long-term sexual abuse allegations across communities.
