Sex offender under supervision indicted for raping woman in Tel Aviv apartment
Prosecutors allege Adam Yassin returned about two weeks later and sexually assaulted the same woman again.
Adam Yassin, a previously convicted sex offender, has been indicted by a Tel Aviv District Court for allegedly raping a woman in her apartment. The State Attorney's Office filed the charges, alleging that Yassin followed the woman home and entered her apartment to rape her. He committed indecent acts and rape, taking advantage of her inability to resist. Yassin was also charged with violating a supervision order meant to protect the public from sex offenses.
Yassin allegedly entered the woman's home a second time two weeks later with the intent to rape her, committing further indecent acts before being driven out of the apartment. Prosecutors claim he possessed pornography and videos he had filmed of women in public, focusing on their buttocks.
Attorney Sigal Orbach-Solomon, representing the victim through the Justice Ministry's Legal Aid department, emphasized the gravity of the incident. She highlighted that the defendant, a convicted sex offender, was under a Prison Service supervision order at the time of the attacks. Orbach-Solomon stated that the defendant followed the woman to her home, a place where she should feel safe, and attacked her in that environment.
She called for those responsible to provide protection to be held accountable and urged other victims of sexual violence not to be afraid to report their experiences to the police.
