Prosecutors have filed a murder indictment against Salah Othman, 48, a resident of a-Tur in Jerusalem, for the aggravated murder of Fatima Rajabi approximately three weeks ago. According to the indictment, Othman had gambling debts and borrowed a total of about 90,000 shekels from Rajabi, whom he knew through his work as a technician. Othman met with Rajabi about three weeks ago and drove her towards his home, telling her he would bring her the money from there. He then took a hammer from his car's trunk and struck her forcefully on the head, causing her death shortly thereafter. Following the murder, Othman placed her body in a barrel he had purchased in advance and poured sealant over it.
