Everyone else is out, he's still inside: The twist in the Shoket arson case

The arrest of a 21-year-old suspect in the arson of a wastewater treatment facility in Shoket, which caused severe environmental pollution, has been extended by three days. The other suspects have been released, and the court criticized the conduct of the investigation.

The arrest of a 21-year-old man, suspected of setting fire to a wastewater treatment facility at the Shoket junction, has been extended by three days while the other suspects in the case have been released. The arson caused significant environmental damage as sewage from the reservoir flowed into the Hebron stream. The court criticized the conduct of the investigation, stating that this is not the beginning of the investigation, even though this is the first request to extend the suspect's detention. The police claimed that the reasonable suspicion against him is higher than against the others but refused to detail the evidence. The defense attorney argued that there is no connection between the suspect and the offenses attributed to him and requested his release to house arrest.
