The Haifa Magistrate's Court extended the detention of Edward Kachura, the suspect in the murder of Yael Little Melnik, until 2/12/21.
As a reminder, the Haifa Magistrate's Court decided yesterday (Monday 29/11/21) to release Kachura to house arrest, but the police filed an appeal with the District Court against the decision of Judge Tal Tadmor Zamir and District Court Judge Ron Shapira accepted the appeal and ordered his continued detention of Kachora until Tuesday.
Today, Ziv Arieli, the magistrate's court judge, decided to extend Kachura's detention by two more days.
In his decision Judge Arieli said: "The investigative unit invested and continues to invest petitions and resources for the purpose of completing the investigation. Therefore, I agree to the police's request to extend the arrest of the suspect until Thursday 2/12/21.
