The Jerusalem District Court finds an Israeli man guilty of murdering his wife in October 2019.

The court finds convicts Eliran Malul of aggravated murder for stabbing his wife Michal Sela to death in front of their young daughter.

“Nothing can bring back those no longer with us,” the judge says. “Our hope is that this ruling will contribute to the fight on violence against women.”

Sentencing will be at a later date.
