(I live here with the weakening of personal security in the city) - Tal from Haifa tells Lahi Pa about the moments of fear she experienced one of the last evenings near her home in the center of Carmel, when a man followed her home after sexually harassing her.
Tal Gilor, 32 years old, who lives in Carmel, experienced moments of horror near her home, last weekend.
Gilon told Lahi Fe: "On Thursday at 22:00 p.m., I came back from training and stopped on one of the more well-lit benches in Garden Mania in the center of Carmel to talk to a friend on the phone. I stopped on a bench not close to the trash cans, because sometimes the pigs come and overturn the cans. I talked a few Minutes with a friend on the phone and I didn't notice what was happening around me. I've lived here since last August, and even on the days I was alone in kindergarten, I was never afraid. I saw the Carmel center as a very safe place."
"I realized he was following me"
"At the end of the conversation, I intended to return home through the path that faces the buildings on Keller Street. I suddenly caught someone standing in the darker area. I thought maybe he had stopped to pee. He was standing facing me, his pants were completely rolled down, he had a motorcycle helmet on his head and he was touching himself ".
"I was shocked, I froze," says Tal. "Probably in his twisted logic, he thought I was interested in what he was doing. He turned to me and said, 'Look, you like it,' and while he was doing it, he didn't stop touching himself for a moment. I told myself that I didn't want him to follow me home, so I continued walking down the garden path , which leads to Cypress St. As I walked, I asked myself what I should do.
"I heard him laugh"
I called the police and realized that he was following me and kept touching himself. I heard him laugh. When I spoke to the police he stood closer to the area I was in. He started shining a flashlight on himself, and I also told the operator that. The operator told me to run away, and she would send a mobile.
I left the garden and returned home via Keller Street. I entered the house and closed all the blinds in the house. I was just shocked, I was shaking at home. I didn't know how to eat this situation at all. After 20 minutes they called me from the mobile. The police talked to me, tried to understand what happened and if I recognized the guy. All I could tell was that he was no older than 20 or 30, he was 1.65-1.70 m tall and his shirt was probably black.
"I was told to take pictures next time"
They told me that they had nothing more to do with it, they could come and do a tour of the garden, but he would no longer be there. They asked me if it happens to me again then take a picture of it and send it to them. I had my phone in my hand when I saw the guy and I chose to call the police and not take a picture of him. If I took a picture, they wouldn't understand anything, because he was wearing a helmet.
The cops said they could patrol the garden, but I'm not sure if they did. I was afraid to go down and see. Yesterday I sat with a friend in the evening at the 'Hadov' pub, and when we returned I told her let's make a detour and not go from the garden, the problem is that I walk this way all the time."
"I've enjoyed this garden so far"
"This garden is still very dark. Until now I enjoyed the garden very much, I always sat on lighted benches. Now I see it differently. Yesterday morning I went out and looked at the garden. I saw that there were no cameras. It is possible that if there were cameras there would be some who would not like it That, but it seems to me that there is no choice. In any case, we must light up the place."
"It's important to me that they know how to be careful"
"It was very important to me that people knew to be careful. People pass by here all the time. It was now a holiday, there were many teenagers sitting in Mania Garden and people who left the auditorium and walked through the garden. Therefore, we must light more and also put cameras in certain places.
I will continue to walk through the garden, but not late at night. I would rather make a detour because I wouldn't want to experience it again. It's crazy that I have to change my habits. Nothing like this has ever happened to me, not when I lived on Masada Street in Hadar, nor in the housing estates in Be'er Sheva when I was a student."
"The police started investigating the incident"
The Israel Police stated that although no complaint was filed on the matter, the Haifa Police Station began investigating the incident. "As soon as a complaint is received, an investigation will be opened. The police intend to carry out all the necessary actions in order to arrive at the investigation of the truth."
As far as I'm concerned, they will castrate him.
There is a report of additional harassment this afternoon (19/4, 17:00 p.m.)
On a nearby street - Lilac, corner of Pinsky David
A suspect wearing a helmet and coat exposed himself to a mother with two small children.
very disturbing
To those who call themselves men and are all total zeroes, lacking understanding, lacking sensitivity and lacking masculinity and it seems to amuse you.
The situation that was here could have happened to anyone, it could have ended very badly. You can't judge anyone in such a stressful situation.
This sick deviant could possibly harm you too, your families, mothers or sisters or nieces...
Your response is out of place and is at a very low level.
Those who fail to understand such stressful situations lack emotional intelligence.
The Israeli police are simply a shame. In my opinion, this is a cousin who lives in Kabir not far from there and to the best of my memory there are supposed to be cameras in Gan Mania and the most important thing is not to walk around alone after dark.
Din Din exact. Bait cop.
Why are there no cameras in Garden Mania and it is always better to avoid passing through the gardens at night for years and always and cameras and police presence will definitely be helpful in catching sex offenders
A very inappropriate and unnecessary response. good week.
Rafi, deal with your articles and not too much to argue or light the fire. Yelken of Kalish Rotem,
Dear Tal, first of all I would like to apologize to you for the blunt words I said. And repeats my words.
God forbid, I'm not saying you're making things up. And I don't have any anger, we will turn against you. I am angry with the police who were too lazy to come to the scene. And disregarded your appeal. Because who knows what was in this place at the time of expression. I requested in a personal letter to the mayor that lighting be installed and I even explained the problem to her. And later I will contact the Ministry of National Security. Regarding the behavior of the police. It cannot be that the Haifa police, which is supposed to protect its citizens, behave in a lawless manner.
I again want to express my apologies, dear Tal, because
This is not my way.
Sodom and Gomorrah indeed
Bait police if he returns to kindergarten.
What a waste of care by the operator (maybe she said maybe not)
Run away, that's the answer???
Try to see a form of clothing, an external form, I send
Mobile, something, run away... is this it?
The residents of Haifa should use their cards to throw out the mayor of the detached city of Shmalani
You have to have pepper spray and spray in your hand from such a maniac that he will run away without his pants on
and call some men to tear his face apart. And Ela who mocks the lady wishes for your daughter to be in such a situation
The name of the garden should be changed to "Slaughter Maniac Garden"
The exhortation to run away was relevant because a man with his pants down cannot run after you fast.
depression
Tell me, Tal, are you taking pills, psychiatrists? Because, if you were to activate your damaged brain, you would follow him and at least take a picture of the motorcycle's number. But leave, there is no reason, there are no worries. You're probably in a movie. Because if here live here you give your version, and in the cage you give a different version, then something is not sane with you, go to whom to check.
Psychiatric pills are bad,
What's more, they don't treat damaged minds or lack of intelligence,
What's more, there is no connection between the above and living in the movie,
What's more, giving conflicting versions is also bad, but is not related to defects or lack of brain.
Thank you very much for a pointless response that proves 1. that your mind is so damaged, 2. that you so and so are in the movie, 3. that despite and in spite of these you are not ashamed to open a Jura that is the size of a Mania Shohat garden.
Good Day.
what a beast's speech,
When your daughter or granddaughter freezes in front of someone in a naked garden masturbating to their face,
I wish you thousands of such responses.
Tapu Misogen is disgusting
A very inappropriate and unnecessary response.
If you had a brain you would realize he could have attacked her
It's interesting that Kalbo delivered a slightly different version.
