Leah Cohen Malka (35) from Rishon LeZion, a mother of a two-year-old toddler, is the woman who was murdered in an explosion of a half-kilogram explosive device in a car on the Ayalon Highway near the Holon interchange. Her former partner was summoned for questioning. Her father said: "Arguments between husband and wife reached a dead end and such a great tragedy." According to the father, Yaakov, he and his wife filed a complaint with the police against the estranged partner for threats, but nothing was done.
