The State Prosecutor's Office announced Sunday evening that it would not cancel the conviction of Margalit Har-Shefi for not preventing Yigal Amir from assassinating Prime Minister Yitzchak Rabin in 1995. The announcement says there was no new reason given for a review of the case, following then-attorney general Menachem Mazuz's rejection of a similar request in 2008.
Current Attorney General Yehudah Weinstein disqualified himself from reviewing the case because of prior dealings with the Har-Shefi family.
