The Jerusalem District Attorney’s Office on Tuesday filed additional charges against the three Jewish extremists indicted for the November arson and price-tag attack against the capital’s integrated Max Rayne Hand in Hand School.
According to the amended indictments, Yitzhak Gabai, 22, of Jerusalem, and brothers Shlomo Rachamim Twitto, 20, and Nachman Twitto, 18, both of Beitar Illit, will also be with incitement to violence, incitement to racism, and supporting a terrorist organization.
The three were initially charged with arson, breaking and entering, and destroying property on December 15. Gabai was also indicted for driving without a license and illegal possession of a knife.
According to the Shin Bet (Israel Security Agency), the suspects are members of the Jewish extremist group Lehava, which follows the racist teachings of the late Jewish Defense League founder Meir Kahane, whose Kach Party was outlawed by Israel for inciting racism.
The indictment states that the three conspired to set fire to the school on November 28 to show their opposition to its coexistence efforts. It charges that they picked the school after learning that it had recently held a ceremony marking Yasser Arafat’s death, and in response to the recent terrorist attacks in Jerusalem against Jews.
The three went to the school with gasoline, a lighter, spray-paint, and plastic bags to cover their hands, the indictment states. It says Gabai and Shlomo Twitto entered two classrooms by climbing through their windows and poured gasoline in the rooms, while Nachman spray-painted the walls with “Death to Arabs,” “Kahane was right,” and “There is no coexistence with a cancer,” before igniting the fire and fleeing the scene.
