(Tomer Appelbaum) del.icio.us Digg It!  new Last update - 17:10 20/12/2007 Three more indictments filed in TV report on pedophilia sting By Ofra Edelman, Haaretz Correspondent Tags: pedophilia, Channel 10  The Tel Aviv Magistrate's Court on Tuesday issued three additional indictments following the Channel 10 investigative report into pedophilia. According to the indictments, which charges Eldad Ben-Guy, 38, from Ramat Gan; Gil Sayag, 31, from Jerusalem, and another Jerusalem resident whose name is being withheld, the suspects had blatantly sexual conversations over the Internet with a Channel 10 workers who posed as 13-year-old girls. The three then agreed to meet the "girl" in a Tel Aviv apartment, where police arrested them. Ben-Guy is being charged with attempted rape and attempted sexual harassment, and Sayag and the third suspect are being charged with attempting to perform an indecent act and attempted sexual harassment.

Ben-Guy's indictment and the indictment filed against Eytan Rozin two days ago are the harshest charges filed. Last week, a team of Channel 10 journalists headed by Dov Gilhar took part in chat room conversations, presenting themselves as 13-year-old girls, and invited the suspects to a rented house in Tel Aviv that was wired with hidden cameras. "Journalists were exposed to blatant sexual passes by men between the ages of 24 and 62," a Channel 10 official said last Thursday. "Offenders offered to have sex with the 'girls,' sent hardcore pornographic images and recorded themselves performing illicit acts on Webcams." Channel 10 journalists were told not to initiate any conversations with suspects, but only to respond to their approaches via ICQ and Messenger. In addition, they were told to agree to meet the suspects only if they suggested it first. When the suspects arrived at the house, they were confronted by Gilhar, who asked for their response to allegations that they tried to seduce underage girls and then showed them the pornographic material they had sent. Suspects were arrested by police waiting outside as they left.
