The Rada Family on Monday repeated it demand that a panel of inquiry be formed to investigate the circumstances that led to the murder of their daughter, Tair Rada earlier this month.

The family members say they have found fault with the behavior of the school, which they said was responsible for their daughter's welfare. They also criticized the manner in which the investigation is being conducted and demanded that a private investigator be added to the police's investigative team.

Tair's father, Shmuel Rada, said, "as far as we are concerned some questions are still unknown. The suspect has in fact admitted to the murder and recreated it, but we ask, is there a knife? Are there clothes? I want to know what the police have. All we want is for the murder to solved"

According to Rada, the police is able to locate neither the knife with which the murder was carried out nor the clothes the suspected murderer, Roman Zadorov, wore while committing the act.

"There are still people who need to be interrogated," Rada Said. "I'm afraid the true killer might remain on the loose."

Channel 10 reports that according to the prosecution, there is no conclusive evidence against Zadorov.

Police are still unable to find the knife with which Tair Rada was stabbed to death. Police detectives on Monday removed the tiles from the shelter floor at the Nofei Golan school in Katzrin in an effort to find the knife, but the search bore no fruit.

Zadorov, the suspected murderer, had been tiling the shelter's floor on the day of the crime, and police suspected that he may have hidden the knife under one of the tiles.

The detectives are to receive lab test reports on Monday, the results of which may be critical. According to Channel 2, results on DNA tests handed to police on Monday were inconclusive.

In an interview to Israel Radio Monday, Tair's mother, Ilana Rada, said she has lost faith in police because of their lack of answers for the questions she is raising. She added that she does not feel the police's current suspect was behind the murder.

Rada said she had heard of "Satanic cult" activity at the school and that police should follow that thread in their investigation. According to her, envy was the motive behind Tair's murder.

At the beginning of the investigation, police looked into rumors of "Satanic cult" involvement, but the investigation on the matter apparently bore no fruit.

"It's a known fact that we have a Satanic cult here," said a student at the school. "These are 10th to 12th graders. They're strange kids who dress in black - they're scary and look strange."

Another student rules out the existence of such a cult at the school, saying, "It's all just some teenagers' nonsense. These are kids who saw different symbols in various places and copied them without understanding their meaning."

The private investigator, retired police chief superintendent Alex Peleg, said that "there is a question mark on the suspect's involvement in the murder. The investigation must be exhausted, but other leads should not ruled out."

Katzrin's central parent-teacher association chairman Moshe Danino said, "The students are still having a hard time recovering. The uncertainty exhibited by the police and the public that police have the true suspect does not help. Until we know for sure that the man arrested is indeed the murderer, we will not feel safe."
