The medical examination results revealed that activist Sion Asdon died from complications related to an infection following a head injury, which led to bleeding in the brain, cerebral contusions, and a skull fracture.
The Attorney General at the Court of Appeals in Casablanca reported on Saturday that on November 7, 2025, the public prosecutor was informed of the death of “Sion Shimon Harim Baruch Asdon.” The prosecutor ordered a medical examination of the deceased’s body, entrusted to a three-member medical committee consisting of forensic specialists.
The Attorney General clarified that the investigation results concluded that the death resulted from infection-related complications stemming from the traumatic head injury, which caused bleeding in the brain and cerebral contusions, along with a skull fracture.
The source added that these findings support the hypothesis that the deceased fell from a ladder while trimming his garden, a conclusion backed by initial findings from the investigation. The public prosecutor will take appropriate legal action upon the completion of the research.
The statement also indicated that the Attorney General referenced a previous announcement made on August 19, 2025, regarding “Sion Shimon Harim Baruch Asdon,” who was found unconscious in his home and subsequently taken to the hospital. At that time, the public prosecutor had directed the judicial police to investigate the incident, and the results were communicated to the public.
