Police file an appeal to the Jerusalem District Court against the release to house arrest of Yehiel Indore, an Israeli man suspected of killing a Palestinian during a recent clash in the West Bank.
Indore is suspected of fatally shooting 19-year-old Qusai Jamal Matan during a clash on Burqa on August 4. Indore was seriously injured in the incident, allegedly from a rock thrown by a Palestinian that hit his face, and has spent most of his time in custody in a hospital before being transferred on Sunday to a Prison Service medical facility.
Earlier today, the Jerusalem Magistrate’s Court ordered Indore released to house arrest, rejecting police’s request to keep him in custody.
