Gay parade attacker indicted for murder
Add ToI as a Preferred Source on GoogleAn ultra-Orthodox man who stabbed seven people at last month’s Jerusalem Gay Pride Parade, leaving one teenage girl dead and six others injured, is charged with murder at the Jerusalem District Court.
Prosecutors indict Yishai Schlissel on one count of premeditated murder and six counts of attempted murder along with a slew of other related charges, after his attack left 16-year-old Shira Banki dead and a number of other victims fighting for their lives.
A remand extension is requested until Schlissel, who was recently found to be psychologically fit to stand trial, can be brought before the court.
