Asher Weisgan, a resident of Shiloh in the West Bank who was sentences for four consecutive life sentences for murdering four Palestinian workers in Shilo in order to stop the disengagement from Gaza, has taken his own life at the Ayalon prison using his tefillin to hang himself.
Weisgan was kept in the religious section of the prison, but asked to be transferred to another cell where he committed suicide Friday afternoon. Police have launched an investigation into the incident.
