The District Court in Tel Aviv today (Sunday) rejected the request of the prosecutor's office to keep Shai Avital in custody, and the former model agent accused of a series of indecent acts will be released to house arrest with an electronic handcuff.

The amount of the deposit increased to 600 thousand, instead of 75 thousand, and the guarantees increased from 500 thousand to 750 thousand.

He was released to his home after he deposited the sums that the court determined.

His lawyers welcomed the decision.



In an indictment filed by the Tel Aviv District Attorney's Office in January, Avital was accused of a series of indecent acts, including crimes of indecent act by force, indecent act, and indecent act while taking advantage of a woman's state of unconsciousness, or another situation that prevents her from giving free consent.

The police also announced that evidence was found to commit sexual offenses in two of the complainants, one of whom was a minor at the time of the offense.



A total of 26 complaints regarding sexual offenses were filed against Avital, for which the agent who fled to Europe was extradited to Israel at the beginning of the month - and he has been in custody since then.
