Two suspects of double murder released for lack of evidence
Police fail to establish that they are related to the nightclub shooting that left guard and passer-by slain.
By Roni Singer-Heruti Tags: Tel AvivTwo suspects in the double murder that took place at the entrance to a nightclub in Tel Aviv about three weeks ago were released to house arrest Saturday night, in what seems yet another episode in a series of police fiascoes.
The two, Yehuda Bouzo and Sabi Mishayev, were arrested along with Shai Shirazi, the son of alleged crime boss Rico Shirazi, a few hours after a motorcyclist opened fire on a crowd outside "Night," a southern Tel Aviv nightclub, killing security guard Sagi Or and Rafael Ronel, 52, owner of the next-door "Taboun" restaurant. Several people were wounded.
The shooting, which targeted the security guards, is apparently related to a fight that broke out at the club the week before between Or and a few youngsters, three of whom were injured. Police believe the three returned to the nightclub to settle the score.
Police could not support their claim before Tel Aviv Magistrate's Court that the two were involved in the incident, but maintained that the investigation is still underway.
The court was not satisfied and ordered the two suspects to be released to house arrest.
