An indictment against suspects in the murder of Beniahu Razi alleges they armed themselves with bats and knives, and that the mother of one suspect brought them to the scene, according to ynet.
The indictment in the murder of Beniahu Razi, as reported by ynet earlier today, alleges that the suspects armed themselves with bats and knives before the attack, and that the mother of one suspect transported them to the scene. These new details provide a fuller picture of the planning of the murder, which occurred in Jerusalem last month.
On Thursday evening (Aug 6, 21:06 Jerusalem), The Zioneer reported that prosecutors intended to file murder charges against six suspects. Later that evening, we reported that charges were formally filed. A subsequent update added that the main suspect's mother, Linor Sasson, was charged with aiding after the fact. The current indictment now specifies the weaponry and her role in bringing the suspects to the location.
As The Zioneer reported on July 12, the ex-girlfriend of Razi erupted in court, and police suspected a 'red cap' scheme where two women lured Razi to an Airbnb apartment. On July 23, two additional suspects were arrested, including a relative of the main suspect who was then at large. On August 4, prosecutors filed statements of intent to indict seven suspects, including four main suspects and three others accused of obstruction and aiding after the fact.
The full indictment document has not been published, and the case remains under court proceedings.
