An indictment was filed today (Sunday) against 44-year-old Igor Olsik for aggravated rape, indecent act and false imprisonment against a 14-year-old minor on the autistic continuum.
According to the indictment, which was filed through attorney Tal Adir Cohen, on October 25, 21 at noon in Ashdod, a 14-year-old minor, an eighth-grade student, left the school and took a bus to her home.
When she got off the bus at the station, she began to walk alone towards her house.
The defendant, who has no prior acquaintance with the minor, noticed her walking in the 6th District, approached her and began talking to her mainly in Russian, although she does not speak and does not understand the Russian language.
The defendant offered the minor to come with him, told her he had food and water and offered her to smoke.
The minor did not understand all of the defendant's words and told Toma that the defendant needed help, so she accompanied him and followed him in the direction he led her.

The indictment states that the defendant led the minor to his apartment building, entered his apartment, locked the door from the inside and took the keys.
In the apartment, the defendant smoked drugs in "Bang" and offered the minor to smoke, but she refused.
Next, the defendant grabbed the minor's waist and led her to his bedroom.
The minor told the defendant that she was 14 and also asked several times to open the door because she wanted to go to her house, but the defendant ignored her words.
In his room, the defendant committed indecent acts on the minor and her husband, without her free consent.
The prosecution requested that the defendant be detained until the end of the legal proceedings against him.
According to the prosecution, there is a reasonable basis for fearing that the defendant will endanger public safety.
As a request for arrest, the accused, who used to drink alcohol and use dangerous drugs, took advantage of the minor's innocence and misunderstanding with special needs and persuaded her to follow him, enter his apartment and commit sexual offenses, all while ignoring repeated requests to allow her to leave the apartment.
The request for arrest stated that the defendant treated the minor as a hunter who hunted his weak prey in the street, in broad daylight, led him to his apartment and carried out his plot, mercilessly.
In his actions, the defendant inflicted a real injury on the minor's soul.
The case was investigated at the Ashdod station, it should be noted that the suspect denied the assault during his interrogation.
Advocate Jeanne Zaitsev, who represents Igor Olsik on behalf of the Public Defender's Office, responded: "Igor cooperated with the investigators and provided a version of the chain of events.
He asserts that he did not assault the minor.
We are at the beginning of the legal process and naturally we have not yet received the investigation materials.
"Once we receive and study them, we will present our arguments in court."
