Remand extended for Abu Khdeir’s killer
The Jerusalem District Court extends the remand of Yosef Haim Ben-David, the adult suspect in the fatal kidnapping and burning of 16-year-old Shuafat resident Muhammad Abu Khdeir in July. Ben-David, who is eyeing an insanity defense, will be held until the end of proceedings against him.
The fate of the two minor suspects has yet to be determined.
Abu Khdeir’s father showed up at the courthouse and called Ben-David a Nazi.
