Police arrested a second person, Thursday morning, on suspicion of planning to harm participants in Thursday afternoon's gay-pride parade in Jerusalem. Channel 2 Television reports a gag order in the case but says the suspect stands to be brought to a Jerusalem court for extension of remand.
On Wednesday, police arrested Michael Schlissel, the brother of Yishai Schlissel who was recently sentenced to life in prison for stabbing teenager Shira Banki to death at last year's parade. Michael is expected to be released hours before the parade.
