A 36-year old Israeli man who used to work as a Jerusalem school bus driver was under arrest Thursday for allegedly sexually molesting a boy in his care for five years, police said. The now-teenage victim told police that he was repeatedly sexually assaulted by the former bus driver in the bus since he was 9 years old until the bus driver was fired from his job five years ago, Jerusalem police spokesman Asi Aharoni said. The suspected child molester, who cannot be identified by court order, was remanded in custody by a Jerusalem court for four days on Thursday.
