Prison officer denies helping murder suspect in Binyamin Razi case

A prison officer suspected of aiding the main suspect in the murder of Binyamin Razi denies all allegations against her, claiming there was no physical contact with the suspect's brother, that her words were taken out of context, and that the approach was made under intelligence guidance. She describes a humiliating arrest and criticizes the police.

A prison officer suspected of aiding the main suspect in the murder of Binyamin Razi denies all allegations and presents a completely different version from the one that emerged from the investigation transcript. The investigation claimed she fell in love with the suspect's brother, Rotem Houdida, and even kissed him in her office, but in an interview with Ynet she firmly rejects this: "There was nothing physical between me and Rotem." She claims her words were taken out of context, and that the approach to Houdida was made under the intelligence guidance of the prison as part of her role as wing commander. She completely denies the suspicion that she helped Aviator Shashon while he was fleeing the police, and claims that the message conveyed to Rotem was that he should turn himself in. She describes her arrest as a "shame parade" in which she was paraded before inmates, and criticizes the police's conduct: "You took me and turned me into the cheapest officer, the lowest of the low." The officer says that about seven months earlier, a similar suspicion was examined regarding another detainee, but the examination ended without findings.
