Man given year in jail for transporting stabber from West Bank
Add ToI as a Preferred Source on GoogleAn Israeli man has been sentenced to a year in prison for transporting a Palestinian terrorist who carried out a stabbing attack in the city of Kiryat Gat in November.
Zuheir Hozeal, from an unrecognized Bedouin town near Rahat, pleaded guilty to transporting Mohammed Tarada from his Hebron-area home to Israel, along with four other Palestinians, likely laborers, in exchange for NIS 100 ($27) each.
Tarada, who was working in Israel illegally before he carried out the attack, stabbed four people in a November 21 rampage, and was caught after a several-hour manhunt.
Hozeal, who expressed remorse, took a plea bargain in exchange for other charges against him being dropped, according to new site Ynet.
