A 26-year-old man from the northern city of Haifa is suspected of raping and murdering four women in the last two years.

Walla names the man as Fyodor Beijanri, and says he was arrested about a month ago.

Beinjari’s lawyer says the police have not yet offered proof linking his client to the crimes, Army Radio says.

“Fyodor is a new immigrant with no criminal past, and he denies the allegations against him,” the attorney says. “His only claim is that the investigator has harmed his basic rights, and furthermore he has been detained for more than 40 days. Even so, the police have yet to present significant proof linking him to the crimes attributed to him and are therefore preventing him from defending his innocence.”
