Miriam Levinger, wife of Jewish settler leader Rabbi Moshe Levinger, was convicted here Sunday of attacking a police officer in Hebron two years ago.
Earlier, when Miriam Levinger refused to appear in court, police forcibly removed her from her home in Hebron.
Earlier this month, Moshe Levinger was found guilty of causing a violent disturbance in the Hebron market four years ago, destroying Arab property and firing his gun.
In another development, a 16-year-old from the West Bank settlement of Shiloh was convicted here of the December 1993 murder of an Arab farmer.
The youth shot the man, who was from a nearby village, with an Uzi submachine gun, according to a report.
The youth will be sentenced in two months.
