Israeli police arrest Palestinian man after he allegedly murdered his Israeli girlfriend who she was giving birth to his child, torched their bodies, then sold her car.
A Palestinian man living in a village on the edge of Jerusalem’s municipal boundaries has been arrested after he allegedly murdered his Israeli girlfriend while she was giving birth to his child, prosecutors announced on Monday morning.
The charred remains of the woman and her newborn child were found in Al-Ram – an Arab village located inside the city limits of Jerusalem – on April 1st of this year.
The woman’s remains showed signs of violence, leading Israeli forensics investigators to conclude that she had been murdered, apparently while in the midst of giving birth. The victim was still attached to her newborn child via the umbilical cord at the time of her murder.
