Indictment filed against Omri Abu Samak for murder of three young men in Jaljulia

Israeli prosecutors filed an indictment against Omri Abu Samak for the aggravated murder of three young men from Jaljulia, whose bodies were found in a burned car two months ago. The indictment alleges Abu Samak and three accomplices shot the victims and set the vehicle on fire.

The State Prosecutor's Office today (Friday) submitted an indictment to the Haifa District Court against Omri Abu Samak (27) from Jatt, for aggravated murder of three young men from Jaljulia - brothers Yazo (17) and Qasem Odeh (20), and their cousin Yahya Bassimi (22) - two months ago. According to the indictment, Abu Samak and three other accomplices who managed to flee abroad planned the triple murder in advance. They led the youths to a farmland in Jatt, shot them in the head and upper body, and then set the car on fire with the victims inside. The indictment states that on the night between September 12 and 13, 2026, one of the suspects picked up the three at an apartment in Jatt, and from there they were led to the field. Abu Samak was heard saying to another person: "May God forgive him for what he did to them, he burned them." The prosecution emphasized the severity of the acts, the premeditation, and the high dangerousness of the defendant.
