A multi-count indictment has been handed down against Yaakov Teital in the Jerusalem District Court on Thursday. Charges include premeditated first degree murder. The indictment lists 14 counts.

Teital, 37, a resident of Shvut Rachel in Shomron, is alleged to have murdered two Arabs as well as perpetrating acts of domestic terror. Upon his arrival in court, he stated “It was a pleasure and honor to serve my God. God is proud of what I did. I have no regrets.”

A NIS 4 million civil lawsuit is also being filed against Teital by family members of the victims.

The state requested that the suspect be held without bail pending the outcome of the legal proceedings.
