UAE publishes prison photos of 3 suspects in murder of Rabbi

The United Arab Emirates on Monday published the names and photographs of three suspects it is holding in the murder of Rabbi Zvi Kogan, a UAE-based Chabad emissary whose body was found early Sunday.

Israel has called the murder an antisemitic terror attack. Chabad said Sunday that Kogan had been “murdered by terrorists.”

All three men are Uzbek nationals, according to the UAE Interior Ministry — Olimpi Toirovich, 28; Makhmudjon Abdurakhim, 28; and Azizbek Kamlovich, 33.

The images showed the men handcuffed and blindfolded, dressed in blue prison uniforms.

The ministry described the three as “the perpetrators of the murder of the Moldovan citizen.” Kogan held dual Israeli-Moldovan citizenship.

The suspects could face capital punishment, according to several Hebrew media reports.

Kogan, 28, who worked in the UAE for the Orthodox Jewish group Chabad, which seeks to support Jewish life for thousands of Jewish visitors and residents in the Gulf Arab state, vanished in Dubai, where he ran a kosher grocery store, on Thursday.
