David Sitbon, the Chabad Chassid arrested on suspicion of abetting right-winger Chaim Perlman, will be sent home for a nine-day stretch under house arrest.

The house arrest order was handed down by the Magistrate’s Court in Petach Tikvah.

As we previously reported, Sitbon was arrested on suspicion of possessing an unlawful weapon, breaking into a private home, and stealing weapons. But the main count was his friendship with Chaim Perlman 14 years ago.

The house arrest sentence follows yesterday’s decision by the Supreme Court to extend Sitbon’s remand. Sitbon will remain under house arrest under restricted conditions for nine days.
