A court has ordered Meital Saar to be released to full house arrest until November 1. The police had requested 14 days of detention with strict conditions, citing concerns about evidence tampering. However, the defense argued that the police's demands were excessive.
In his ruling, Judge Keidar stated that 11 days of full house arrest would suffice. He noted that the grounds for potential evidence tampering had already been addressed by the initial arrest. The case is reportedly related to suspicions of corruption within the Kfar Saba municipality, where Rafi Saar serves as mayor.
