Border Police officer arrested for selling drugs

Investigators arrested an officer in the Border Police’s elite undercover Yamas unit today on suspicion of “trading dangerous drugs” alongside a soldier and civilian, via a Telegram group chat.

The three suspects, all residents of Beersheba, were arrested after a joint, covert investigation by the police, military police and Department for Internal Police Investigations (DIPI).

The suspects will be brought before a judge today for an extension on their remand. The investigation is still underway, says a DIPI spokesperson.
