The District Court in Lod convicted Palestinian Alaa Atzi, 25, from Beit Liqya of manslaughter, despite the fact that he was initially charged with the murder of David Bar-Kafra, a 70-year-old farmer from Rehovot, in 2015.
Atzi's relative, Mujahed Atzi, said to be Alaa Atzi's accomplice, was also charged with murder.
