Police Conclude Probe into Arson Attack on Woman's Car by Ex-Fiancé

Police in Jerusalem have concluded their investigation into two East Jerusalem residents, aged 23 and 26, suspected of setting fire to a woman's car. The prosecution has announced its intention to indict the two men and seeks their detention until the legal proceedings are complete. The incident began on September 16, when a report was received about a car fire belonging to the victim. Investigators from the Shfayim station in the Jerusalem district gathered evidence, which indicated the woman had been in a relationship with the main suspect, and they were even engaged.

Following the woman's decision to cancel the wedding, she reportedly began receiving threats from her former fiancé. According to the suspicions, after issuing the threats, the fiancé sent the second suspect to carry out the act. The second suspect allegedly arrived at the location and set the vehicle ablaze. Both suspects were arrested and their detention was extended periodically as the investigation progressed. On Wednesday, their detention was extended by the court until October 4, as sufficient evidence was gathered.
