Palestinian jailed for 25 years over Jerusalem car attack

Mohammed Sleiman admitted to five counts of attempted murder in a plea bargain A Palestinian who injured four Israeli border policewomen and a civilian when he drove his car into them was sentenced Sunday to 25 years in prison, the Israeli justice ministry said. Court documents released by the ministry said that Mohammed Sleiman, from east Jerusalem, admitted to five counts of attempted murder in a plea bargain. In March, Sleiman plowed into a group of Israeli border policewomen as they crossed a busy road outside their base on the line separating west and east Jerusalem, wounding four of them.
