Israeli Court Rules Rohan Mentally Ill During Arson
An Israeli three judge court ruled Denis Michael Rohan was mentally ill when he set fire to the Al Aqsa Mosque in Jerusalem and ordered hospitalization for treatment. The 28 year old Australian admitted the act but his attorneys argued lack of criminal responsibility due to his condition. Psychiatrists testified he suffered acute schizophrenia with paranoid delusions and delusions of grandeur. The verdict allows a 45 day appeal and possible release if mental state improves. Rohan belongs to the Church of God sect seeking temple rebuilding on the mosque site.
