Lee Zeitouni (1986–September 16, 2011) was an Israeli pilates instructor, born in Kibbutz Neve Ur in northern Israel. At the age of 25, she was struck and killed by two French nationals, Claude Khayat (dual French-Israeli national) and Eric Robic, who were driving a black BMW sports utility vehicle on September 16, 2011 in Tel Aviv. The two left the accident scene and fled to France to avoid criminal prosecution, where they accepted responsibility for the crime and expressed their regret. The Israeli and French authorities were in close communication with each other on how to proceed, as the French law of extradition, like Israel's, does not allow extradition of nationals, except to countries of the European Union, to bring them to justice. In July 2012, after an official complaint from the Zeitouni family, France launched a criminal investigation into the death of Lee Zeitouni that led to Khayat and Robic being charged for homicide, failure to assist a person in danger and unlawful escape to avoid responsibility. In December 2014 Eric Robic, the driver of the car that hit Zeitouni, was found guilty of manslaughter and sentenced to 5 years in prison. Passenger Claude Khayat was found guilty of deliberately failing to provide assistance to a person in danger and was sentenced to 15 months. ==Early life== Lee Zeitouni was born in Kibbutz Neve Ur in 1986, and was the sibling of two brothers and a sister. At the time of her death, Zeitouni was a Pilates instructor. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Lee Zeitouni affair」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
