Yitzhak Luria Ben David, suspected of planning his murder last New Year's Eve, was released from custody on Tuesday. Yesterday, two other suspects in the case were released: Bar Shammai, the suspect who gave the order to run over Aflalo, and another 16-year-old suspect. Chen Ziv, the driver who actually ran over Aflalo, remains in custody. He will be brought tomorrow for an extension hearing.
Last Rosh Hashanah Eve, Aflalo was run over, and about a week ago we revealed in Israel Hayom that the police suspect that this was a murder incident. The police claimed that the deeper the investigation becomes, the more they discover that the vehicular attack was carried out in a planned and timely manner. According to the police, Shammai summoned and urged the driver of the vehicle to accelerate the vehicle and gave a report of locations, even telling him to "give gas."

At the detention extension hearing, the police representative said that this was not a simple investigation and that it was not simple involved. The investigation is progressing well. As for Bar Shammai, from his first interrogation, he was lying. "He was interrogated multiple times, repeats the same version, minimizes his part in the acts, lies in interrogations, is very manipulative, when yesterday in a decision that is not clear to us, after receiving legal advice several times and this is his right, and after being exposed to all the evidence, among other things, apparently from his cellmates, he gave a version, which is also false. In the end, under one circumstance or another, he lied and in the same breath minimized his involvement."
