Israeli police arrest man who, they suspect, murdered a Czech

Israeli police have arrested a man who, they believe, killed a Czech volunteer working in the Golan Heights in 2003. Advan Farhan was arrested on suspicion of four murders, one attempted murder, rape and two attempted kidnappings. He is thought to have killed the 27-year-old Czech with the help of his girlfriend when the volunteer hitched a lift with the couple in 2003. According to the Czech Consulate in Israel, the unnamed Czech was working in the country illegally and was identified by her boyfriend shortly after she was murdered six years ago. According to Israeli police, Mr Farhan has confessed to the murders though his motives remain unclear.
