Three men will be brought for an extension of remand Tuesday to Be'er Sheva Magistrate's Court on suspicion of rape and accessory to rape of an 11-year-old girl in Arad.

The three suspects, all residents of unrecognized Bedouin villages in the Negev, were detained Monday after a complaint was filed to police.

After leaving her Arad home Monday at 3:30 P.M., the girl was assaulted by an anonymous attacker, who forced her into nearby bushes and violently raped her.

The mother alerted security forces, who questioned the girl and launched a search the area.

In the manhunt, conducted with the assistance of helicopters, police detained three men ages 20-30.

One of the men is suspected of rape and two of accessory to rape. All three have denied the accusations against them.
