The State Prosecutor's Office will file a second indictment on Monday against Ismail Abu Aram, the terrorist who stabbed a man 15 times at a supermarket in Yavneh earlier this month.

The police and Shin Bet investigation revealed that on August 2nd, the 19-year-old terrorist from the town of Yatta near Hevron arrived at the Supersol branch, pulled out a knife, stabbed the deputy director of the branch 15 times in his upper body, and then fled the store. The terrorist was then apprehended by civilians, who turned him over to the police.

The victim, Niv Nehemiah, 42, was evacuated to Kaplan Hospital in Rehovot in critical condition following the attack, and was fighting for his life for days.

On Sunday, Nehemia was discharged from the hospital, three-and-a-half weeks after the attack.

Staff at Kaplan Hospital in Rehovot say Nehemia underwent a series of difficult operations to stabilize his condition, but is now expected to make a full recovery.

Abu Aram confessed to carrying out the attack during his interrogation and told authorities that he had come to stab Jews "in order to carry out the commandment of Jihad." The prosecution is expected to file an indictment against Abu Aram tomorrow for attempted murder.
