  "summary": "The Jerusalem Magistrate's Court has extended the detention of a man suspected of placing sedative substances in baby fruit-puree jars until September 6. The suspect, a man in his 40s from southern Israel, was arrested at his home on Monday following what police described as a breakthrough in the investigation. Police suspect that clonazepam and lorazepam, both prescription medications from the benzodiazepine family, were deliberately inserted into jars of Prinok fruit puree sold at two Zol Begadol supermarket branches. At least three young children were hospitalized after consuming the puree and were later discharged in stable condition. The suspect has a mental-health condition and is currently in a complex psychological state, according to his attorney. The investigation remains ongoing, and unless released earlier, the suspect will remain in custody until September 6.",
