Mothers from ‘Taliban’ cult remanded until next week
The two mothers from the Jewish “Taliban” cult who were arrested this week on suspicion of child abduction and neglect are remanded into custody for another five days by the Jerusalem District Court, the Ynet news site reports.
Judge Mika Banki says there is “reasonable suspicion” the women committed the offenses, according to the report.
Ten of the twelve children the women had between them are in custody of welfare authorities. The whereabouts of two 13-year-old girls — one from each mother — remains unknown and the women have refused to say where they are.
