Father Charged with Murdering Toddler Son Using Plastic Bag
Israeli prosecutors have filed an indictment in the Jerusalem District Court against Khalil Ayad, 27, accusing him of murdering his toddler son, about three years old, by suffocating him with a plastic bag while the two were alone at home.
The indictment also accuses Ayad of mentally abusing his four-year-old daughter, who witnessed part of what happened, and of obstructing justice after allegedly trying to hide the bag used in the killing.
Prosecutors asked the court to keep Ayad in custody until the end of the proceedings. The charges include murder with intent under aggravated circumstances and abuse of a minor.
