Palestinian gets 16 years for police stabbing
A Jerusalem court jails a Palestinian man Wednesday for 16 years for the December stabbing of two Israeli border policemen in East Jerusalem.
The court says Mussa Ajlouni, 25, from Jerusalem’s Old City, pleaded guilty in a plea bargain to two counts of attempted murder over the December 26 attack on the officers, near his home.
Police at the time described their injuries as light.
The attack came at a time of frequent clashes in East Jerusalem, as well as a series of “lone wolf” attacks on Israeli civilians.
