"37 years after the murder of 12-year-old Nava Elimelech, the court approved the removal of her body from her grave and its transfer to the National Forensic Medicine Institute in Abu Kabir. The police said that that this was done after the crime-fighting Lahav 433 police unit re-examined the investigation file. The police didn’t explain what led to the decision and whether new information had been received...
Elimelech left her home in Bat Yam on March 20, 1982 at 12:30 P.M. In a note she left her parents she wrote that she was going to visit a friend. Her older sister Efrat was the last to see her alive, at 3 P.M., at the corner of Balfour and Rothschild streets in Tel Aviv. In the evening, when she didn’t return home, her parents informed to the police, who began searching for her.
Ten days later two passersby who were running on the Tel Baruch beach in Tel Aviv saw a bag that aroused their suspicion, and inside it they found Elimelech’s severed head. Later other parts of her body were found on the beach, and the police determined that the murderer had dissected her with an electric saw and tried to scatter the parts in the sea."
