Police have released new footage of the suspects in the murder of Beniahu Razi, captured in Jerusalem's Nahlaot neighborhood moments before the killing, according to a report. The footage adds a chronological layer to the investigation, showing the suspects' movements immediately prior to the attack. The release today (Tuesday, 13:26 Jerusalem) follows earlier reports of footage filmed in the Nahlaot alleys.
The Zioneer reported on Monday, August 3, at 13:43 Jerusalem that the police investigation had concluded and that the prosecutor would file charging documents. Later that day, the prosecutor filed a formal statement, and a minor suspect expressed sorrow while denying direct involvement. The main suspect, Avior Sasson, claimed self-defense, alleging the victim pulled a knife first, though police are skeptical. An indictment against four suspects is expected to be filed this Friday. Prior to Monday, The Zioneer reported on July 19 that a court extended the detention of a suspect by four days, and on July 22, three female suspects were remanded for eight days. Also on July 22, exclusive footage showed the suspects fleeing the scene and attempting to dispose of the weapon.
The case has involved a manhunt for the main suspect, who was arrested after a week. The new footage provides additional visual evidence of the suspects' actions before the killing.
Further details of the new footage have not been released. The suspects remain in custody. The indictment is scheduled for Friday.
