The Tel Aviv District Court sentenced four residents of east Jerusalem to two to eight years in prison Thursday, after they were convicted of the assault and robbery of several young homosexuals in Tel Aviv's old central bus station.

According to the indictment, in January 2007, the four scoured the station's area for men seeking to rendezvous with other men, going as far as to place one of them as a decoy.

Around 4:30 am, one of the plaintiffs fell for the scam, picked up the man posing as a decoy in his car, and the two made their way to a nearby car park.

Once inside the car park, the indictment continued, the three other assailants found the two. The plaintiff, sensing danger, tried to escape  but the four began beating him, ordered him to strip naked and robbed him, taking off with his clothes, his money and his car, which contained his cell phone and laptop.

"This is one of the most vicious cases ever brought before this court," wrote Judge Khaled Kabub, who presided over the hearing, in his ruling.

"The defendants acted with premeditated malice, laying in wait for their victim, leading him to a secluded place and exercising brutal, unwarranted, violence."
