Tel Aviv rape: Palestinian arrested near crime scene

Resident of Nablus area apprehended near Gan Ha-Ir parking lot; police say he has been residing in Israel illegally; four other Palestinians arrested on suspicion of helping him rape teenage girl while forcing her boyfriend to watch


Police arrested Monday evening a 21-year-old Palestinian on suspicion of brutally raping a 18-year-old girl in a parking lot adjacent to the Tel Aviv municipality building over the weekend. Another four Palestinians were arrested on suspicion of being his accomplices.


Officers from the Yarkon police sub-district arrested the West Bank resident at around 20:45 on Ibn Gvirol Street - not far from the scene of the crime - and took him in for questioning. Yarkon sub-district commander Yoram Ohayon said the suspects "may have been involved in other incidents."

Oyahon told Ynet the suspect "is very familiar with all of the streets" near the crime scene.
