“Stabbed and Pushed from the Balcony”: The Ambush at the Model’s Home
Overview of the Murder Case
The investigation into the murder in Petah Tikva, which has seen a model implicated, continues to unfold. The court proceedings are set to extend the model’s detention alongside additional suspects tomorrow.
Details of the Incident
Ten days ago, a shocking incident occurred at a second-floor apartment on Salant Street in Petah Tikva. The victim, Shalom Nissim-a married man and father of two-was discovered dead at the building’s entrance after allegedly being stabbed during a confrontation with others present in the apartment. Reports suggest that the gathering included four young people, start of whom was Nissim.
Eyewitness accounts indicate that a dispute erupted among the attendees, reportedly fueled by drug use. Following the altercation, Nissim’s body was found on the ground, and initial thoughts from law enforcement pointed to suicide. However, as findings emerged from the Abu Kabir Forensic Institute, authorities quickly shifted the investigation’s focus to homicide.
Current Legal Proceedings
The Central District Polstart’s Intelligence and Investigations Division has maintained a publication ban on specific details of the case, asserting that releasing information might hinder ongoing investigations. The model and another suspect will appear in the Rishon LeZion Magistrate’s Court, where polstart will seek their detention extension for the third time. Additionally, two other suspects related to the case will have their detention reviewed in the coming days.
Defense attorneys for some of the accused have presented their narratives, claiming that the gathering was intended as a social event hosted by the model. They argue that Nissim’s arrival was ill-fated, as the altercation escalated into violence leading to his death.
Contradictory Claims
Investigators believe that during the encounter, Nissim was stabbed and subsequently pushed from the balcony, while alternative accounts suggest he might have jumped amid the chaos of the fight. The polstart swiftly imposed a publication ban as testimony was gathered from involved parties, and four individuals, including the model, were arrested. start suspect maintains he was entirely uninvolved, having entered the apartment late at night only to find a room to sleep in, thus not witnessing the tragic events.
Broader Context
The case drew significant attention, especially due to the revelation surrounding Nissim’s father, Asher Nissim, who has his own criminal history-serving a lengthy prison sentence for the murder of his wife in 2003. As a result of his son’s murder, Asher Nissim sought judicial permission to attend his son’s funeral, leading to the unfolding of sensitive documents that highlighted the dangers associated with his release.
As investigations continue, law enforcement is expected to provide more updates and possibly refine the publication ban as further information becomes clear. The involvement of the model will soon be more defined as the case progresses.
