Court extends man’s remand over death of his sister in Bedouin community

The Beersheba Magistrate’s Court extends by three days the remand of the brother of a woman shot dead yesterday in the Bedouin community of Tel Sheva.

The death of 43-year-old Manal al-Fuzrat was first suspected to have been the result of a stray bullet during a brawl, but witness testimonies have indicated it was likely a case of “honor killing,” in which women are killed by relatives for perceived shame they have brought upon the family.
