State appeals light sentence of officer who abused Palestinian

None

The State Prosecutor's Office filed an appeal with the Supreme Court on Sunday over the light sentence given to Shani Sevilla, a former Border Guard officer who was sentenced to three months in prison and three months of community service for abusing a Palestinian man.

 

The State is claiming that the punishment is unusually light and does not match the severity of the crimes Sevilla was convicted of. (Aviad Glickman)
