A Beersheba court has opened proceedings against a 26-year-old father accused of severely beating his one-month-old daughter. The Southern District Prosecutor's Office has charged the man, from southern Israel, with aggravated assault on a minor by a caregiver, resulting in grievous bodily harm. The indictment, filed by prosecutor Hila Klepper Cohen at the Beersheba District Court, details a series of attacks on the infant.
According to the investigation conducted by the Ashdod police, the father repeatedly assaulted his newborn daughter, who was only a month old at the time. The child sustained critical injuries, including internal bleeding and multiple fractures to her ribs and legs. She was rushed to a medical facility, where doctors placed her in an induced coma for approximately five days and connected her to a ventilator due to life-threatening conditions.
Medical staff performed emergency procedures, including chest drainage and surgical fixation of a broken femur. The prosecution has requested the father's detention until the conclusion of the trial, emphasizing the extreme severity of the crime given the perpetrator's responsibility for the helpless infant's care. The prosecution highlighted the suspect's commission of violent acts against his own defenseless child, who was entirely dependent on him.
