Fugitive serial rapist caught near Nahariya
None
Fugitive serial rapist Benny Sela was nabbed at the entrance to the northern city of Nahariya on Friday evening, two weeks after escaping from police custody in Tel Aviv en route to a mistaken court hearing.
Large police forces poured on the coastal city after residents reported spotting the convicted rapist. Police said Sela, who was convicted for 14 counts of rape and sexual assault and sentenced to 35 years in jail, was hiding in a stolen car upon his arrest. (Sharon Roffe-Sophir)
