Shimon Dadoun added that the dispute (between him and the deceased) was not resolved in the end. It is possible that his son Aviel was aware of the conflict and the intention to sue his wife, Aviel's mother. He never spoke about the murder of the deceased to his son Aviel (p. 3430), although the son told him about the murder a few days later. However, the witness did not refute the claim that the son was aware of the details of the dispute. It was also clarified that his son Aviel used to use drugs and was referred by his father, the witness, for rehab.
Here it is worth mentioning the words of Eyal Tsafrir (December 11, 2024, pp. 4637 ff.), the son-in-law of the deceased, who was present at a violent event in which the deceased took a plank and threatened Shimon Dadoun and his wife. Although his words were not identical to those of Shimon Dadon, they explicitly described a violent event to which Shimon Dadoun also referred, as well as a reconciliation meeting held in the presence of the deceased in the office of Shimon Dadon's lawyer.
In this regard, Attorney Idan Yochai Edri was also summoned as a final defense witness, who said (August 10, 2025, p. 4898, paras. 12 onwards) that the Dadons, Shimon and Colette, approached him, because "if I remember correctly that the late Arnon purchased an apartment near the Dadoun family and there was a dispute over a wall or a wall, yes." The deceased intended to sue for libel in the sum of ILS 50,000 and Shimon Dadoun was very nervous about this. In any case, apparently there was also a request for an order to prevent threatening harassment and Shimon Dadoun asked that the wall be moved, "I remember that the wall is something really jarring to the eye, I don't know who is to blame, what is guilty and what is right or wrong, there was some wall that actually went over their balcony, a wall, between the two houses, they actually raised some kind of provincial wall." In a conversation with the deceased, it was clarified that he lived next door to the witness's parents, and that the deceased had made inappropriate remarks towards members of the Dadon family. In May 2020, Adv. Edri summoned a mediation meeting in his office between the deceased and Shimon Dadon, the meeting was partly emotional, and even offensive, but "at the end of the day they shook hands and that's how the process ended as far as I'm concerned." At the same time, it seems that the conflict has not completely subsided. At the end of December 2020, Shimon's son, Aviel, sent him a video from which the witness learned that the conflict had not died down. Additional notices, requesting an examination by the Local Planning and Building Committee, were sent on February 24, 2021, March 17, 2021, and March 18, 2021. The deceased also called him, about a month before he was killed, claiming that "the sulha does not survive." At that point, Aviel Dadoun was the contact person, and the witness sent him a message that a meeting would be held "after the holiday" (the Passover holiday). The witness was aware that Aviel was addicted to hard drugs, but did not represent him in a legal proceeding related to violent offenses. The witness met the late Aviel about a month and a half before his death. He helped him put bags in his car and asked about his mother's condition regarding the dispute with the deceased. At the same time, in response to the court's question, the witness clarified that he had never witnessed inflammatory or violent behavior on the part of the parties to the dispute, the Dadoun family and the deceased, and concluded that the dispute had not died out of the content of the telephone messages he received. After the deceased's murder, no member of the Dadoun family spoke to him.
