Police are expected to request an extension on the remand of an Arab Israeli professor from the Hebrew University of Jerusalem who was arrested yesterday on suspicion of incitement.
Nadera Shalhoub-Kevorkian, a criminologist and law professor, is under investigation for questioning Hamas rapes and other atrocities during the October 7 attacks and saying that Israelis are “criminals” and “should be afraid.”
Shalhoub-Kevorkian will be brought before the Jerusalem Magistrate’s Court later today.
