Dalia Rabin, the daughter of assassinated prime minister Yitzhak Rabin, believes that Hagai Amir, the brother of her father’s assassin, should not be released from jail on Friday as scheduled.

Hagai Amir, 44, is completing a 16.5-year sentence for conspiring with his brother, Yigal Amir, in the killing of then-prime minister Rabin in 1995.
