Police in Israel's Rotem region arrested a deputy council head in the Negev area and his brother on Monday on suspicion of involvement in an assault against a female relative. The two allegedly attacked the woman because she chose to date a man they disapproved of.

The investigation began after police received a report of a suspected assault on a woman by her family members. Officers from the Shagav Shalom station investigated the incident, leading to the arrest of the two suspects. They were taken for further questioning at the station.

The brother's detention was extended earlier on Monday by a court. The deputy council head is scheduled to appear before the Beersheba Magistrate's Court on Tuesday to determine whether his detention will be extended for investigative purposes. The investigation is ongoing.
