A 51-year-old resident of Bnei Brak has been indicted for allegedly assaulting his wife on multiple occasions and threatening to murder her. The charges stem from a November 1st police report concerning suspected domestic violence. Responding officers located the wife, and subsequently arrested her husband.
During the investigation, authorities uncovered a pattern of repeated violence and threats against the wife. According to the indictment, in one incident in October, the man returned from synagogue, kicked the family dog, and then threatened to kill his wife. He allegedly threw a wine bottle at her, striking her face and breaking two teeth.
Further allegations include the man slapping his wife, throwing a plate at her, pulling her hair, and using a kitchen knife to apply force to her hands. In another instance, during an argument, he threatened to "break her bones" and pushed her.
Following the complaint and investigation, police gathered evidence. The Tel Aviv District Prosecution Unit has now filed an indictment against the man for threats, assault causing actual bodily harm, and simple assault against a partner. Alongside the indictment, prosecutors requested that the man be held in custody until the legal proceedings conclude.
