Palestinian convicted of killing Michal Halimi sentenced to life in prison

A Palestinian who was convicted of the murder of  his pregnant Israeli lover “because she was a Jew” is sentenced to life in prison.

Nablus resident Muhammad Harouf was initially believed to have killed Michal Halimi in a domestic dispute, but the charge sheet was later amended to reflect the killing was for “nationalistic reasons.”

The Tel Aviv District court gave Harouf the sentence today after he had confessed and signed a plea deal.
