Indictment Alleges Sexual Abuse of Four Teenagers in Lodgings and Mobile Recordings

Israel’s State Attorney’s Office has filed an indictment with the Central District Court in Lod, accusing Elior Cohen, a resident of Rosh HaAyin, of multiple sexual offenses against four teenagers aged 13 to 15.

According to the indictment, Cohen exchanged explicit sexual messages with the minors, met them in person, and picked them up in his car to different vacation cabins. There, he allegedly engaged in sexual acts with them and recorded the encounters on his cellphone.

The filing says Cohen later urged the teenagers to delete the conversations or keep them in a hidden folder. He is charged with rape of a minor under 14, indecent acts against a minor, and additional sexual offenses.
