Omar Safa Khosi, arrested Sunday for filming a minor girl in the Fishman Beach locker room, will be indicted on Monday.
Turkish embassy employee Omar Safa Khosi is suspected of filming a minor girl in the locker room of Frishman Beach in Tel Aviv, and he will file a lawsuit against him on Monday, Israeli media reported.
Kosi was arrested last week on suspicion of sexual harassment after a phone call to Israeli police claimed that he had entered the women’s locker room and photographed the underage girl on his cell phone. At least three other complaints were filed for the incident.
A police representative said during the investigation, the suspect “did not deny taking photos, but made non-contradictory statements.”
Turkish authorities demanded the release of Kossi to their detention center and were detained in a diplomatic capacity in the compound of the Tel Aviv embassy, but Israel rejected the request.
Kosey’s lawyers tried to convince the court to release him to the embassy’s supervision, but also rejected the request. Instead, the judge decided to expand Kosey’s detention, given the nature of the crime.
This is a developing story.
