The State Attorney's Office has filed severe indictments against six individuals involved in the murder of 19-year-old Binyahu Razi in the Nachlaot neighborhood of Jerusalem. According to Walla reports, the complex investigation, led by the Jerusalem District's Crime Fighting Unit (YALAP), exposed a toxic relationship that escalated into the planning and encouragement of the violent incident. According to the indictment, Agam Tsarfi, the victim's ex-partner, and Shilat Chuta, were the individuals who instigated the event. Following a prior dispute, they joined four additional minors to confront Razi and his friend, Matanya. The investigation found that the suspects had equipped themselves in advance with weapons, including knives, clubs, a razor, and a metal meat tenderizer.
On the day of the incident, the defendants arrived at the apartment where the victims were staying. Findings suggest that while Agam and Shilat monitored the event from a distance or from a vehicle, the minors carried out the actual attack inside the apartment. Staff Sergeant Avi Zvi Levy, a YALAP investigator, stated that the evidence points to premeditation and preparation rather than a spontaneous reaction. There are indications in the file that Shilat documented part of the event via a real-time video call, while the defendants encouraged the attackers. After the assault, the suspects claimed self-defense, but investigators rejected this version based on the nature of the preparation and the planned conduct.
Additionally, Linor Sasson was charged with accessory after the fact and obstruction of justice, as she is suspected of helping the defendants escape and providing them with instructions on how to act when facing law enforcement. Superintendent David Temstet, commander of the YALAP, emphasized that the circumstances, from the threats sent along the way to cornering the victims in the apartment, demonstrate a clear intent to harm Razi. Investigators noted that the defendants displayed indifference toward the incident's outcome during interrogations. While the suspects attempted to maintain various defense lines, the collected evidence, including security footage, screenshots of conversations, and forensic reports, formed the evidentiary infrastructure for indictments of intentional joint murder.
