The Arab worker who documented himself on TikTok ripping off a mezuzah, tearing it from its encasement and attempting to set fire to it has been detained by police.

Chairman of Otzma Yisrael, MK Ben-Gvir said he, "Expects the police not to release the disgusting creature that harmed holy Jewish item, but to [prosecute him to the fullest extent of the law] while insisting on his continued detention until the end of proceedings."
