The Jerusalem District Court ruled on Monday that there is insufficient evidence to support the murder charges against Agam Zarfati and Shilat Huta in the case of Benyahu Razi's death. Attorneys Roi Politi and Omri Stern, representing Zarfati from the Public Defense, announced the court's decision. Following the ruling, the court has referred both defendants for a probation service report to assess their potential release. The defense attorneys stated that the court accepted their arguments that Zarfati was not involved in planning the murder and did not wish for the deceased's death, rejecting the prosecution's stance. They also highlighted the harsh and humiliating treatment Zarfati has allegedly endured from the Prison Service (Shabas) since her arrest, expressing hope for her release to alternative detention soon and for fair treatment while under Shabas's care.
