The police have solved the triple murder in the Jatt area, where three family members from Jaljulia were shot dead. According to suspicion, it was a planned ambush by the Hariri crime organization, carried out using the 'Little Red Riding Hood' method: the victims were led to the scene in a vehicle, shot dead, and the vehicle was set on fire with their bodies inside. The investigation, initially conducted by the Baqa al-Gharbiyye station and the Coastal District Central Unit, was transferred to the Lahav 433 National Serious and International Crimes Unit due to the severity of the incident. On October 8, a resident of Jatt was arrested on suspicion of involvement, and after about 30 days of investigation, an evidentiary foundation was established against him. Simultaneously, an evidentiary foundation was established against three additional suspects who are on the run. Head of Lahav 433, Superintendent Manny Binyamin, said it was one of the most brutal murders in recent years and praised the professionalism of the investigators.
