Remember that Austrian guy who locked his daughter in a basement for 24 years? This story is sorta like that only the children were locked in an underground cave…. in the Holy Land…. and with less vacationing in Thailand:
Nablus – Ma’an – Police in the West Bank city of Hebron arrested a man for allegedly imprisoning his son and daughter, who are now in their thirties, in two caves for over 20 years.
Police said they found the siblings in the adjoining caves during a security sweep for drugs and weapons dealers.
Only one passage leads to the two caves, which lack light and ventilation.
The siblings were taken for medical and psychological treatment.
Preliminary investigations show that the suspect was a widower who remarried. He and his wife told the police that the children were mentally disabled, and they locked them away to “avoid embarrassment.”
On Monday police announced that arrests had been made in a similar case, where a man chained and tortured his maid and young daughter in Bethlehem.
Plato would be so proud.
