Rape

Israel's Supreme Court halts the publication of a rape suspect's name, sending the case back for further review, sparking debates on justice and privacy.

The attacker entered the complainant’s second-floor apartment through the balcony in the early morning hours and overpowered her as she went to check noises from the living room.

Swalwell has denied the accusations as "absolutely false" and vowed to fight them, but several leading Democrats have urged him to end his bid for governor.

Police say more than 50 women may have been victimized in the case, which emerged from a months-long covert investigation launched after complaints by two soldiers.

Justice Alex Stein says there is ‘first-order public interest’ in disclosure, holds publication pending further review of claimed suicide risk.

The 15-year-old gave a statement to police in Rishon Lezion, which included the suspect's name. The name has not been released to the public. 

"I filed a report with the police at the age of 17 against my father, who raped me," said one survivor. "The case was closed due to lack of evidence."

The case began after the girl’s absence from school triggered a report to the local child-protection council.

A report published on Tuesday by the UN Human Rights Office and the UN Support Mission said migrants are rounded up and abducted by criminal trafficking networks.

The police launched an investigation after a 19-year-old tourist arrived at a hospital in Jerusalem and reported to police she had been sexually assaulted.
