The lynching of the engaged couple:
A minor who participated in a lynching in East Jerusalem about a year ago in which Shahar and her father Antman, then an engaged couple, were injured, admitted this week in the indictment filed against him.
The minor has been charged with a terrorist offense of aggravated sabotage, and a hearing of arguments for punishment is expected to take place soon in his case.
Meanwhile, a follow-up hearing was held yesterday (Wednesday) for sentencing arguments against two other rioters accused of participating in the lynching, after previous hearings in their case were adjourned.
The prosecution asked for sentences ranging from 6 to 9 years in prison for one, and from 9 to 13 years in prison for the other.

In addition, there are two other defendants for whom hearings have been scheduled for the beginning of evidence.
In total there are five defendants participating in the lynching of the couple.
Advocate Haim Bleicher of the Honno organization, which represents the couple, said: "We welcome the conviction of the terrorist along with his fellow terrorists who have already been convicted and who, with the help of the name, will be convicted.
"We will continue to act on the criminal level as well and bring the side of the victims of the crime to prosecute the terrorist, and we will continue to act on the civil level to claim the damages from the terrorists who harmed the couple."
Advocate Bleicher added: "We of course expect the court not to make it easier with the defendants.
These are terrorist terrorists, and there is no room for them to be eased. "
Recall that last month the couple testified about the difficult lynching they went through.
Her father focused on describing the difficulties the couple has been going through since the lynching "As long as we do not know that our defendants have received their sentence then it is difficult for us to walk around Jerusalem. As long as they do not receive their punishment we will not be calm. ".

His wife Shachar (then his fiancée) described to the judge how their happy day became a difficult event "It is an event of our marriage proposal, an event we have been waiting for and dreaming about all our lives. This event, instead of being remembered forever as the happiest event in our lives, will be remembered as a traumatic event."
Shahar later explained that they carry with them the consequences to this day "things we did not experience before the incident, fear and threat we experience. Hence our request that the defendants in our case be punished as much as possible .. There are also some attackers who have not been arrested to date. "And others like them, who will understand that this is something that does not pay off for them. We will be happy for the court to take into account what we have experienced and execute the sentence with them."
