Jerusalem District Court keeps Linor Sasson in custody in Benayahu Razi murder case
The court declined to release Sasson to house arrest at this stage but ordered the Probation Service to submit an assessment within 30 days. Her detention will be reconsidered at an October hearing.
The Jerusalem District Court has decided to keep Linor Sasson in custody in connection with the Benayahu Razi murder case. Sasson, 46, is accused of helping members of the group accused of murdering Razi flee after the attack and obstructing the investigation. The court found preliminary evidence supporting these charges, but Sasson has not yet been granted house arrest.
Her case will be reassessed at a hearing on October 22. The murder victim, Benayahu Razi, was stabbed to death on July 11, along with his friend who was also wounded. Seven people were indicted in August, with Sasson and her son Avior Sasson among those charged with assisting after the fact and obstruction of justice.
