A 42-year-old man from East Jerusalem, Adam Yassin, is suspected of following a woman in her 20s from a Tel Aviv nightclub, breaking into her apartment, and sexually assaulting her. The incident allegedly occurred after the woman returned home on October 12. Yassin, who has a prior criminal record for sex offenses, including one involving a minor in 2022, is reportedly monitored by the Prison Service's Tzur unit for sex offender supervision.

Following the woman's complaint to the Jaffa police station, investigators gathered evidence, including technological findings and forensic tests, to identify the suspect. After two weeks, on October 27, police arrested Yassin based on a court order. His mobile phone was seized, and preliminary examination allegedly revealed findings linking him to the assault.

After completing their investigation and gathering sufficient evidence, the Tel Aviv District Prosecutor's Office announced its intention to indict Yassin on Tuesday. His remand was extended until November 12, with an indictment and a request for his continued detention until the legal proceedings conclude expected in the coming days. Yassin is suspected of committing another sex offense against a woman he allegedly did not know, after stalking her to her home.
