A Haifa Magistrate's Court extended the arrest of Ali Musawada, 28, until October 7. Musawada is suspected of murdering his wife, Yanina (Yonit) Rossinova, 31, last Friday in Haifa. The couple's infant son, only two months old, survives Yanina.
The court cited concerns about evidence tampering and the suspect's dangerousness, noting that new evidence significantly strengthens the suspicion against him. Musawada's defense attorney argued that his client was the one who called emergency services and that he denies the accusations.
Musawada, a resident of the East Jerusalem neighborhood of Silwan, was arrested shortly after the incident. Police are continuing their investigation into the alleged murder.
