Israeli Singer Denies Violence Allegations, Calls Incident a Private Dispute

An Israeli singer recently arrested on suspicion of domestic violence against his partner has responded publicly for the first time, denying all allegations and describing the incident as a private argument between the couple. His representatives stated, "We categorically deny all claims and fabrications of assault or violence," and expressed trust in the court's decision to release him to house arrest. The singer was detained on Saturday following a complaint and was questioned at the Rishon Lezion police station. His scheduled performance was subsequently canceled.

The singer's partner also spoke out for the first time on Sunday morning, describing the night as "very traumatic" and saying she felt "mentally shattered." She denied claims that she tried to run over the singer during the incident, calling the accusation "completely baseless." She urged the public not to jump to conclusions, noting that the police have all the details and she trusts them to conduct a proper investigation.

The case came to light after N12 reported the arrest, which followed a confrontation captured on video showing the singer telling his partner to "take your things and leave the house," and accusing her of attempting to run him over. A source familiar with the investigation told N12 that the arrest was based on at least one incident reported to the authorities, with investigators examining the validity of the complaint and the possibility of multiple violent acts. The singer's identity has not been disclosed at this time.

The court's decision to release the singer to house arrest reflects the ongoing legal process, while both parties emphasize the private nature of their dispute and request respect for the judicial proceedings and their privacy.
