Recent update on the "purity of arms" and all that.NRG Maariv: Soldiers who shot dead Palestinian at roadblock, decided to lie to Military police. Case cracked only after one of them decided to reveal the truth.

NRG Maariv has learned about a cover-up in a case in which two Golani Division soldiers were accused of killing a Palestinian at an army roadblock.
