The six suspects are all adults from the Israeli Arab town of Jisr az-Zarqa and Arab villages in the Wadi Ara area near Hadera.
On Sunday, Israeli police announced the arrest of the six suspects, and offered some details on the suspected rape.
According to a police spokesperson, the suspects were arrested last week after they allegedly gave the 13-year-old Israeli girl drugs and alcohol, then gang raped her repeatedly.
The primary suspect in the gang rapes, a 24-year-old Wadi Ara resident, is believed to have groomed the girl online through the Instagram social network.
After meeting the girl in person, the suspect took her to an abandoned building in central Netanya, gave her drugs and alcohol, and then proceeded to rape her. Two other suspects took part in the rape.
The primary suspect raped the girl repeatedly, with the five other suspects taking part in the sexual assaults at various times. The girl later told her friend, who told her mother who then reported the affair to police.
A judge extended the remand of the six suspects Sunday. Investigators say they expect additional arrests in the case.
Following the announcement, the anti-assimilation group Lahava issued a statement condemning the rape as an act of “sexual terrorism,” and criticized Israeli media outlets for not noting the suspects’ nationality.
“These six vicious animals took advantage of a helpless girl’s naiveté, gave her drugs and alcohol, then brutally raped her.”
“They did it because the girl they raped was Jewish. They did it as part of their war on the Jewish people, in order to humiliate and degrade our daughters and their honor.”
“We call this phenomenon ‘sexual terrorism’ – the sex crimes Arab men commit against Jewish women out of nationalistic motives.”
These animals should be lynched straight up. No doubt the PA will start paying them. I am constantly surprised unfortunately at the depths of depravity these animals can sink to. My apologies to actual animals .
They need to be delat with how they’d be treated in their traditionally lands. I believe in mots arab countries rape is punsihable by death. Am i wrong paulin?
You got that right with rusty tools Then gurn them over to her family for one hour
It’s horrible, but not shocking. Very sad how social media is so unsafe
What part is shocking?
And what happened to the parents role in educating this girl? No girl or boy should be allowed free access to the internet. What family values did she have?
Sounds like more behind the story than just Arabs r ape a Jewish girl. Not that I mean to pardon these Arabs, but parents have responsibilities too.
