Israeli police announced Sunday the resolution of the September 10 murder of Raed Haj Yahya in Tayibe, arresting three suspects in connection with the shooting death. According to a police statement, a complex and intensive investigation by the Central District's Sharon Subdistrict revealed evidence against the three individuals, who are suspected of premeditated murder. An indictment is expected to be filed against them on Sunday.
The investigation, conducted in cooperation with the Central District State Attorney's Office and with assistance from Tayibe police and Sharon Subdistrict forces, determined that the victim left his home and entered his car in the evening. The suspects allegedly waited for him nearby in a car, having planned the assassination and divided roles. One suspect is believed to have surveilled Haj Yahya's home, another drove the car that intercepted the victim, and a third exited the vehicle, fired multiple shots from a handgun through the car's windows and doors, killing Haj Yahya.
Investigators believe the killing was carried out by an assassination cell that operated according to a pre-arranged plan, with coordination and role division among the perpetrators over several days. Secret and intensive investigative measures, including various evidence-gathering techniques, led to the identification of the three suspects and the compilation of evidence linking them to the planning and execution of the murder.
Following the transition to the public phase of the investigation, the suspects were arrested and their detention was extended by the court. Central District Police Commander Major General Amir Cohen stated that solving the murder and uncovering the assassination cell were the result of decisive and professional action by investigators. He affirmed the police's commitment to combating crime and violence in the Arab community and vowed to continue working firmly to bring murderers to justice for public safety and the rule of law.
