Court orders release of woman who slapped prosecutor at soldier-slapper’s trial
Add ToI as a Preferred Source on GoogleThe Jerusalem Magistrate’s Court orders the conditional release of an Israeli woman arrested for slapping a military prosecutor at the trial of Palestinian teenager Ahed Tamimi, who was convicted of slapping and shoving a soldier.
The court, however, delays the release in order to allow police to file an appeal.
The woman, who was identified by police only as a resident of central Israel in her 40s, slapped the prosecutor during a hearing Wednesday at a West Bank military court, where Tamimi was sentenced to eight months in prison as part of a plea bargain for assaulting a soldier.
