Arab Israeli influencer Yoseph Haddad charged for firing gun during quarrel with motorcyclist
State prosecutors file an indictment of right-wing Arab Israeli influencer Yoseph Haddad for firing his handgun during an altercation with a motorcyclist in Jaffa.
Haddad was charged with “committing a reckless and negligent act with a weapon” over the incident last week.
After being arrested and questioned about the incident last week, Haddad was released to house arrest.
Haddad’s lawyer says in a statement that more serious cases have been waiting to be prosecuted, and claims that the charge is “not criminal but political.”
