Summarized from Ynetnews by baba

CenterNeutral tone

English · 3 newsrooms covering

Bar-Ilan University professor Shahar Nevo, accused of plotting mass terror attacks against Arabs, refused a court-ordered psychiatric evaluation on Sunday, asserting his mental soundness. The Central District Court in Lod sided with Nevo, declining to compel the examination. Nevo faces charges related to an alleged plan to kill hundreds of Arabs, which he claims is misrepresented by the partial release of his documents. He also named two public figures he believes should be prosecuted instead.
