Prisoner Accused of Murder Transferred After 'Bullying' Behavior
Two weeks after being separated from her co-defendant, prison authorities have transferred Agam Zarfati, accused of the murder of Binyamin Raz, to Abu Kabir detention center. The decision was made by the Commissioner of the Israel Prison Service, Kobi Yaacobi, following Zarfati's alleged "bullying and insolent" behavior in prison, which included acting as if she owned the facility and disrespecting guards.
Upon her arrival at Abu Kabir, Zarfati was met by members of the YAMAZ (Special Operations Unit), a unit typically responsible for handling female terrorists. The unit conducted a thorough search of her cell and explicitly informed her of the required conduct within the prison walls.
This move aligns with the policy of National Security Minister Itamar Ben-Gvir and Prison Service Commissioner Kobi Yaacobi, aimed at preventing security and criminal prisoners from receiving preferential treatment or "camp-like conditions" in Israeli prisons.
