The article describes the story of Yaron Sankar, a hitman sentenced to two life sentences for a double murder at a hair salon in Hod Hasharon in 2003. Prosecutor Miki Poren, who handled the case along with two other attorneys, revisits the unusual investigation and Sankar's complex character. On one hand, Sankar committed severe murders, including assassination attempts on well-known underworld figures such as Shimon Zrihen, Shalom Domrani, and Yitzhak Abargil. On the other hand, he cried at his victims' graves and expressed remorse during questioning, but in court he remained silent and exercised his right to silence. Poren describes Sankar as a 'lone wolf' who sought a framework with the Ohana brothers, who sent him to carry out the murders. The article focuses on the difficulty of proving the connections between Sankar and his senders, using his confessions and successful communication data. It also notes the tragedy of Tomer Shabat, a hairdresser mistakenly killed, and the harm to innocent civilians in underworld conflicts.
