Addressing a session of the Knesset Interior Committee on Monday, Avraham Koltuv, a relative of Batsheva Unterman stated that she could have been alive today if the policeman on the scene of last week’s bulldozer attack acted appropriately.

Avraham explained that the policeman did not ‘verify the kill’ as they are trained to do and as such, the terrorist, Hussam Duwiyat was able to continue, murdering Batsheva Unterman, crushing her to death in her vehicle.

Avraham requested that the government do the right thing and destroy the terrorist’s home, which is located in the Tzur Bachar neighborhood of Yerushalayim.

Former Jerusalem Police Chief Mickey Levy told panel members that police, unlike soldiers, are not supposed to ‘verify a kill’ but are instructed to neutralize the perpetrator.
