Israeli tourist Rotem Singer, 23, suspected of starting a wildfire at Chile’s Patagonia national park Torres del Paine, denied the allegations against him during a radio interview. “It wasn’t me, they put the blame on me. I supposedly confessed, but I didn’t really confess,” he told the Army Radio station Galatz on Sunday.
Singer is expected to report to a Chilean police station once a week and his passport has been taken away from him. The Israeli backpacker described the reactions he got from locals while being escorted to court, saying the crowd shouted “asshole” and “Jew” at him.
