Wasserman Schultz Statement on Arrest of Suspects in Palestinian Teen Murder

 
WASHINGTON – U.S. Rep. Debbie Wasserman Schultz issued the following statement today after six suspects were arrested over the weekend in connection with the murder of Muhammad Abu Khdeir:
 
“The alleged revenge killing of a Palestinian teenager in the aftermath of the murder of three Israeli teenagers is a heartbreaking tragedy.
 
“I commend the Israeli government for swiftly condemning this act and for its commitment to bring the perpetrators to justice using the fullest extent of the law. The Israeli government’s response, including Prime Minister Netanyahu personally calling Muhammad Abu Khdeir’s family and the quick arrest of six suspects demonstrates Israel’s commitment to holding the perpetrators of this heinous crime accountable.
 
“I urge all sides to show restraint, refrain from vigilante justice, and work together to break the cycle of violence.”
