The suspect in the attempted sexual assault in Haifa is still on the loose

(haipo) - Almost two weeks have passed since an unknown person attacked a woman in the quiet Kabbir neighborhood in Haifa and tried to commit an indecent act on her. The attacker has not been caught since then and is actually walking around freely, while the women of the neighborhood fear for their safety and have equipped themselves with pepper spray to protect themselves if God forbid they are required to do so.


The feeling of insecurity among the women in the Kabbir neighborhood and the neighboring neighborhoods is at an all time low these days. Along with the concern for themselves, there is of course the concern of parents for children, who are used to walking around the neighborhood without fear. The prevailing atmosphere in the neighborhood stems from the fact that, although almost two weeks have passed since the resident of the neighborhood was attacked by a man who tried to commit an indecent act on her, the suspect in the act has not yet been caught and he is walking around freely. The woman who was attacked was equipped with pepper spray and is receiving support at the assistance center for victims of sexual assault.

As I recall, there was a witness to the incident, a resident of the neighborhood who happened to be passing by at the time of the incident, with her 9-year-old son with her. It is their presence that apparently prevented the suspect from carrying out his plot in the attack.

The same witness told Hai Fe today that as time goes by without the suspect being caught, the sense of security of the residents of the neighborhood deteriorates more and more. Most of the women and girls who live in the area made sure to stock up on pepper spray, hoping that if they found themselves in a similar situation, they would be able to defend themselves.

Parents of children who live in the neighborhood say that since the incident they are constantly worried about peace and fear for their children. On the one hand, they do not want to prevent the children from going out, playing and leading a routine life, and on the other hand, they are afraid, especially in light of the fact that there are no patrol cars in the neighborhood and there is no municipal security presence, neither in the evenings nor at night. According to them, they could have relaxed a little if, at least during this period, the police and the municipality had made sure to increase the presence in order to give them back at least some sense of security, through a regular patrol of mobility.

The Israel Police handed over to Hai Fa Because no suspect has yet been arrested and the matter is still under investigation.

  1. So a man did something to a member of his family and the saying is that it is better for the police not to interfere? So a man did something to a member of his family and the saying is that it is better for the police not to interfere?

    This is the only thing that can be understood from "not yet caught and after two weeks he is still roaming free".

  2. "Quiet neighborhood" between the calls of the muezzin, the weddings outside and the fireworks.... a safe neighborhood maybe you meant to write it down.
