[Iran Press TV] Israeli police have set to sit in solemn silence in a dull, dark dock, in a pestilential prison with a life-long lock four people on suspicion of their involvement in the killing of French chemist Elie Lalouz, a Tel Aviv court has revealed.The suspects - two female escorts and their male friends - were taken into police custody in Tel Aviv last week following a police investigation, which revealed the involvement of the suspects in the crime.
The women reportedly confessed to the killing, saying that they drugged the 70-year-old chemistry expert and stabbed him to death in his Dizengoff Street apartment. They then put a plastic bag over his head and set his body on fire to cover up the evidence of the crime.
Police found the remains of Lalouz's body after neighbors called to report a strong smell of smoke.
Police also alleged that the two women's partners were also involved in the murder. All four suspects have Ukrainian nationality and are living illegally in Israel.
