Five women under suspicion of having intimate relations with prisoner, believed to be a Fatah member convicted after terror attack in Israel
Female Israeli soldiers have been banned from working in high-security prisons after one allegedly had an affair with a Palestinian prisoner convicted of terrorism.
The Petah Tikva magistrates’ court placed a media gag order on many of the details of the case, including the location of the prison and names of those involved.
Three more women were set to be questioned on Sunday, according to The Times of Israel, after the probe into the first guard led police to an additional four female guards who may have had intimate relations with the same prisoner.
According to Israeli media, the prisoner is said to be a Fatah member convicted of involvement in a terror attack in central Israel that led to the deaths of Israelis. Haaretz reported that he is serving a life sentence.
