Jaffa police have arrested a man in his fifties who worked as a security guard at a local educational institution. The arrest occurred Tuesday morning following reports of alleged sexual offenses against a minor at the suspect's workplace. Investigators accuse the guard of sexually harassing a student and unlawfully restricting her freedom of movement, reportedly by locking her in a school room against her will. The Tel Aviv District Police press service confirmed the incident.
The student has provided testimony to special investigators trained to work with adolescents. Based on her statement and initial evidence, police apprehended the suspect at the school and took him to a police station for questioning. Investigators are seeking to extend his detention, citing the need to prevent witness tampering and to investigate potential similar complaints from other students.
In a separate case, law enforcement has concluded an investigation into a domestic violence incident and filed charges against a 57-year-old resident of the Arab village of Sheikh Dannun in northern Israel. He is accused of brutally assaulting his daughter, making systematic death threats, and intentionally destroying household property. Investigators determined the man was heavily intoxicated when he attacked his sleeping daughter with a heavy object. The daughter managed to escape and attempt to flee outside for help, but her father pursued her, continuing to issue threats.
Israeli police emphasized their zero-tolerance policy for domestic aggression and crimes against children, urging the public to report any instances of violence or harassment by calling emergency number 100.
