Interrogation transcripts reveal suspects discussing evidence in Solberg case

The story · English

Transcripts from police interrogation rooms, aired Sunday night by i24, offer a look at conversations between two suspects in the case involving the area near the home of Deputy President of the Supreme Court Justice Noam Sohlberg. The material shows them discussing what evidence investigators had gathered against them and how they might respond, with the exchange centering on photos and videos they said were shown during questioning.

According to the transcripts, the two tried to judge how strong the evidence was and whether they could deny involvement in the events. In one discussion, one suspect said his lawyer had advised him to admit only if he could be identified clearly in the footage. The other said he believed there should be no admission even if investigators presented photos from the incident.

The suspects also talked about the possibility of a long detention, the public and media attention surrounding the case, and their concern about the legal proceedings that could follow. Near the end of the conversation, one of them was heard reciting part of "Shir LaMa'alot," while the other encouraged him and said that, in the end, everything is determined by Heaven.

Earlier on Sunday, an indictment was filed against four people accused of involvement in the incident near Sohlberg's home earlier this month. The defendants, Nahman Platnik, 20, Avraham Fried, 20, Gershon Hanun, 21, and Shimon Atf, 41, all from Beit Shemesh, were charged with riot, and two of them were also charged with trespass. The court ordered their detention extended until further decision, while the remaining suspects in the case were released to house arrest.
