Six people, including the head of a known Rishon Lezion crime ring and his girlfriend, are convicted of severely beating security guards at Tel Aviv’s Ichilov Hospital in September, a statement by the Justice Ministry says.
David Amoyal and his partner, model Elia Kadosh, are convicted along with four of their friends on a half dozen or so assault-related charges. Amoyal will serve 25 months in prison, while Kadosh will undergo psychiatric exams to determine her mental fitness before she is sentenced.
The Justice Ministry statement names Ruslan Misayev, Mor Biton, Hanan Alfasi and Avraham Yosephov as the others who took part in the assault. They are sentenced to jail time ranging from 17 to 22 months.
The defendants are convicted under a plea bargain, with several charges dropped in exchange for their confession and cooperation.
Help us report truthfully on social media
As a multimedia journalist, my job is to take the quality, fact-based journalism produced by The Times of Israel newsroom and make it accessible across every platform — from Instagram posts to podcasts to short-form videos.
This is how many, especially young people, consume news these days. But misinformation is rampant on social media. Our team at ToI produces accurate, responsible short-form reporting on Israel and the Jewish world.
If you believe in the importance of factual social media journalism, please consider joining our reader support group, The Times of Israel Community. Your financial support is essential to sustain responsible multimedia reporting.
