A police investigation ordered by the offices of the attorney general and government prosecutor has cleared a police sapper of criminal intent of shooting shot dead a terrorist attacking bystanders.
The two teenage female terrorists brandished scissors to stab people at the city’s Mahane Yehuda open market last month. One of them managed to lightly wound a 70-year-old Arab before the police sapper at the scene shot her and her accomplice.
A video showed one of the women on the ground after being shot and then the police officer shooting her again and killing her, prompting the government attorneys to demand an investigation on suspicion of murder.
The investigators concluded, after three days of questioning, that since there was no sound with the video, there was no way to contradict statements by the police sapper that he first ordered the woman to drop the scissors and shot only after she refused.
It also could not be proven that the woman still did not present a danger even after she was on the ground. Experience has shown that terrorists sometimes have tried to stab police or guards who approach them after being grounded by gunfire.
Public Security Minister Gilad Erdan spoke from the podium in the Knesset Tuesday to sharply criticize the offices of the attorney general and prosecutor for ordering the probe
He said:
I express my regret at the decision of the legal advisers to investigate the police sapper who foiled the attack in Jerusalem by two female terrorists.
I am not able to understand why people try to judge police security forces every time they make split-decisions during a terror attack, as if we were talking about working in a laboratory and as if it were possible to know in a moment what weapons and explosives may be on the body of terrorists or if they still have the strength to stab anyone who approaches them.
An indictment was presented in court on Friday against the female terrorist who was not shot dead during the attack.

Bull effing . Put those idiot attorneys in jail.
Ridiculous. Terrorists are dead men walking. No price should be paid for killing terrorists only awards. They are the enemy. We are at war.
a perverted justice will be able to kill people the same way as a terrorists…
this officer had done a perfect job…
You will have peace only in a world without terrorists and without attorneys…
That is what they're supposed to do – to protect society even if it means they have to shoot to kill. what about if somebody go and ask the terrorist why she had to stab people.
YOU ONLY HELP THE TERRORISTS WHEN YOU JAIL THOSE WHO FIGHT THEM … AND MORE TERRORISTS WILL ATTACK BECAUSE OF IT
we are in a war, to kill an enemy is not only a choice, it is a task
Suicide vests just take the push of a button.
SO, NOW, A FELLOW YID WOULD HAVE TO ASK PERMISSION TO THE TERRORIST SCUM BEFORE SHOOTING…WHAT A NERVE !!!!
People who have been shot several times and lieing on the ground can still push a button to detonate a explosive vest. It should be standard procedure to always keep shooting untill the Israeli is certsain the attacker is dead.
Award him a medal and promote him!
Is the attourney general a Quisling Jew ?
Can Israel really be this stupid? If you're lucky enough to kill the terrorists in the act, why even think about prosecuting the shooter? To show the Muslims how even-handed the Jews are? Like they really care. Really, the stupidity is mind-boggling.
