Two suspects have been arrested after a teenage girl was allegedly gang-raped after being spiked at a party in northern Israel. The incident occurred in a city in the region, with an investigation announced on Wednesday by local police.
Complaint and Investigation
The complaint was filed on Saturday night, police said, and has sparked an "intensive investigation," during which further arrests are expected. Police are asking the court to extend the detention of the two suspects.
"Naturally, we cannot elaborate further as these proceedings are conducted behind closed doors," authorities said in a statement. The incident is being investigated by the police's Coastal District.
Allegations and Suspects
The girl was allegedly served a drink containing a substance that left her in an impaired state, according to local publication Y Net News. Several adults and minors then allegedly took advantage of her, committing sexual offences while she was alone.
While two suspects have been arrested, police are also examining additional individuals. One suspect is an adult, while the rest are minors. The investigation remains ongoing.
