Shoshana Struck, the daughter of Israeli Housing and National Missions Minister Orit Struck, was found dead in a rented summer home in the Amirim region of Galilee. Last year, the girl accused her mother, father, and brother of sexual abuse. An investigation into Shoshana Struck’s death has been launched.
Police officers who arrived at the scene reported the incident to authorities, and Shoshana Struck’s body was sent to a forensic center to determine the exact cause of death. Authorities have announced an investigation into the case. Initial reports indicate Shoshana may have committed suicide, but her death is being treated as suspicious.
Orit Struck confirmed her daughter’s death in a statement on social media, saying, “My heart is broken by the death of our beloved daughter, Shoshana.”
Shoshana Struck gained widespread notoriety in Israel for allegations made in a video released last year. Shoshana Struck, who lives in Italy, accused her mother, Orit Struck, father, and brother of sexual abuse and cruelty in a video posted on social media. The young woman claimed that at a very young age, she was involved in “pedophile rituals” and was regularly abused. Following her accusations, Shoshana Struck reportedly traveled to Israel to file a formal complaint, alleging that her younger siblings were also physically abused by their parents. These allegations resulted in a temporary ban on publication in the Israeli press.
Shoshana claimed that the abuse was documented, after which she left Israel and later returned to Tel Aviv to file a complaint against her family. After turning to the police for protection, Shoshana said, “I realized I was under threat from criminal elements, so I returned to Israel with my husband. I ask the Israeli police to protect me from my family.”
Shoshana claimed she was sexually abused by her parents, which was filmed. This had a profound psychological impact on her and led her to leave Israel. She later returned to Tel Aviv and filed a police report against her parents for sexual abuse. Shoshana’s brother, Svitsky Struck, was also accused of kidnapping and torturing a Palestinian child in 2007.
