An Israeli border police officer who shot dead an east Jerusalem man during a routine arrest operation which turned violent last year has been charged with manslaughter, the Justice Ministry said Monday. The fatal November 9 shooting, which spurred a night of Arab rioting, was found to have been unjustified by a justice ministry investigation. The officer, who has been suspended from active duty, was indicted following a personal hearing on the case, the ministry said.
