The Jerusalem Magistrate's Court extended Wednesday's arrest of a suspect in her 40s on suspicion of continually abusing her helpless parents and assault that caused a real injury to her 89-year-old father, which led to his hospitalization.
Police investigators in the Jerusalem District opened an investigation following a report from the hospital that an 89-year-old man had received medical attention after being seriously injured in his eye, and suspected that his injury had been sustained by his daughter. The suspect was investigated on suspicion of felony physical or mental abuse, a helpless assault, causing actual injury and threats.
As the investigation and arrest of the suspect progressed, the investigators' suspicions grew stronger against her, as well as the suspicion that the suspect had been abusing and hurting her parents for a long time. As mentioned, yesterday's arrest was extended until 6.12.19.
