Third man sent to prison after stealing sound systems from murdered Nova festival victim

The stolen systems belonged to a company co-owned by Matan Lior and his business partner, Amitai Rahum. Lior was murdered at the festival after helping evacuate festival-goers under fire.

San Lucian Tevel has been sentenced to 28 months in prison for his role in stealing sound systems from the Nova music festival site following the Hamas-led October 7 attack. The systems belonged to a company co-owned by Matan Lior and Amitai Rahum, both of whom were murdered during the attack. Tevel helped steal the high-value equipment just two days after the tragedy and provided logistical support, including renting a trailer and giving his vehicle to the other conspirator, Ram Shahin.

He has also been ordered to pay NIS 10,000 in compensation to Lior's and Rahum's families and NIS 10,000 to Rahum directly. The court also seized Tevel's vehicle used in the crimes and took into account his post-traumatic stress disorder when determining his sentence.
