Police are continuing the search for Tzion Ochana, 45, from the northern Jerusalem suburb of Adam, who disappeared last Tuesday (Dec. 18). Investigators arrested two Arabs yesterday believed to be involved in what seems to be a terrorist kidnapping.
Ochana was last seen leaving his home, heading for work in Jerusalem. Police determined that Ochana was in telephone contact with the suspects, residents of the neighboring Arab village of Jaba, prior to his disappearance. The suspects explained that they repair appliances for Ochana and denied any connection to a kidnapping or murder. Police report that they have no prior criminal records.
