A Rishon LeZion resident filmed Thursday striking protesters on Highway 1 was questioned and released to house arrest under self-signed bond, with a gag order prohibiting contact with the victims, according to the source that reported the incident.
A Rishon LeZion resident filmed Thursday evening striking protesters on Highway 1 was questioned by police and released to house arrest under a self-signed bond, with a court-ordered prohibition on contacting the victims. The incident adds to a recent pattern of lenient judicial outcomes for individuals accused of violence against demonstrators — earlier this week, a suspect filmed pointing a gun at protesters was released to four days of house arrest, and an officer who kicked a Haredi protester was questioned by Internal Affairs and released without restrictions. No further details on the charges or the investigation timeline are available.
