Behadrei Haredim reported that a 16-year-old Yeshivah student was arrested for molesting a boy he had lured from a bookstore. The abuser showed the boy pornography and sexually abused him.

The victim immediately told his parents who informed the Child Protection Center.

The boy revealed that he had made plans with the abuser to meet again in the same bookstore in the Gush 80 neighborhood. Undercover police – some dressed as harredim – subsequently arrested the abuser in the bookstore.

The abuser confessed to the abuse and expressed regret. He is being held in a juvenile facility
