A Beer Sheva Magistrate's Court has sentenced San Lucian Tebel to 28 months in prison for stealing sound systems from the Nova music festival site after the massacre. Tebel is the third person convicted in the case, following Ram Shahin and Daniel Hasson, who received heavy sentences for the same offense. The sentencing was delayed, with Tebel failing to appear at a previous hearing on the third anniversary of the massacre, citing medical reasons. The stolen equipment, belonging to the late Matan Mordechai Lior, was valued at approximately one million shekels. Lior, who owned a company that supplied sound systems for the festival, was murdered at Nova after remaining to help save dozens of people. He was posthumously awarded the Civil Heroism Medal. Tebel and two accomplices entered the closed military zone two days after the massacre and removed the equipment under false pretenses. Notably, Tebel allegedly attended Lior's seven-day mourning period to offer condolences while the stolen equipment was still in his possession. The equipment was recovered and returned following an Israel Police investigation. Tebel was also sentenced to a suspended prison term, a fine of 10,000 shekels, and 30,000 shekels in compensation, with his vehicle ordered confiscated. Matan Lior's father, Ofer Lior, expressed the family's pain over the prolonged legal process and the violation of his son's legacy, stating that while they searched for Matan, others stole what he built. The Nova Community Tribe organization pledged continued support to the Lior family in preserving Matan's memory and seeking justice.
