High Court rejects petition to halt partial demolition of terrorist’s home
Add ToI as a Preferred Source on GoogleThe High Court of Justice rejects a petition from family members of a Palestinian terrorist who killed an American-Israeli man in the West Bank to halt the partial demolition of their home.
Khalil Jabarin, 17, from the Palestinian city of Yatta, fatally stabbed Ari Fuld in September outside a supermarket at the Gush Etzion Junction. Before collapsing from his wounds, Fuld chased after Jabarin and shot him as he tried to stab a bystander.
Jabarin was subsequently detained and security forces mapped out the floor of the family home where he lived to prepare it for destruction.
The Kan public broadcaster reports Justice George Karra dissents on the ruling, arguing there is no reason to demolish the floor on which Jabarin lived.
