Add ToI as a Preferred Source on GoogleA woman from the Bedouin city of Rahat has been arraigned in court over an attack she allegedly planned against police officers in Jerusalem earlier this month, police say in a statement.
The 31-year-old woman was arrested on April 2 near Damascus Gate in the Jerusalem Old City, after officers saw her keep her hand in her bag for some time, approached her and found scissors.
