Yishai Shlissel, the ultra-Orthodox man who attacked marchers at Jerusalem’s Pride Parade for the second time, has been declared mentally fit to stand trial — again.

Yishai Shlissel, the ultra-Orthodox man accused of murdering a teenage girl and injured five other people in a stabbing attack at the Jerusalem pride parade last month, was declared mentally fit to stand trial on Wednesday.

The Jerusalem police is expected to charge Shlissel with murder and several counts of attempted murder. Shlissel has refused legal representation, saying that he does not recognize the court because it does not follow the rules of Torah.

This is the second psychiatric evaluation Shlissel has undergone since he was arrested at the scene of the stabbing on July 30th. Though an assessment carried out the day after the attack found Shlissel to be psychologically fit to stand trial, the Jerusalem district psychiatrist ordered his mental state to be reassessed after extended observation in a psychiatric institution.
