According to the police report, the woman met the accused through a mutual friend.

An Ashdod resident was arrested on Tuesday on suspicion of having raped a new immigrant to Israel from Ukraine after he offered to show her around the city. 

The investigation began approximately two weeks beforehand, when the 19-year-old new olah filed a report with the police. 

According to the police report, the woman met the accused through a mutual friend.

He pretended that he was also an oleh and offered to help her familiarize herself with the city of Ashdod.
