Shot three times in the back....in self defence

There's a story in Ha'aretz about a Negev farmer who killed an Arab by shooting him three times in the back. The Israeli farmer is claiming self defence. The police are sceptical. But here's what makes this story relevant to an anti-zionist blog:
Be'er Sheva Magistrates Court on Sunday ordered that a Negev farmer suspected of murdering a rustler be released to house arrest with certain restrictions.
Now can anyone imagine an Arab under Israeli rule, accused of shooting and killing a Jew, being released to house arrest? Maybe we don't have to imagine. Maybe there is such a case. In which case perhaps someone could find details of it.
