Indictment served against accused IDF rapist
An indictment was served at the Jaffa Military Court against Din Tawil, the main suspect in a brutal gang rape that took place at the Hatzerim air base and was made public in late April.
Tawil is accused of rape, sodomy, indecent acts, breach of privacy and destroying evidence, as well as obstruction of justice.
The soldier is accused of having attacked other female soldiers on the base where he served. The military made his identity public – an unusual course of action – in the hope that other victims may come forward and testify.
