Housing Ministry official arrested on suspicion of bribery

A senior official at the central region department of the Housing Ministry is arrested on suspicion of bribery, breach of trust and money laundering.

The official is arrested, according to the police, following a development in a probe conducted by the Lahav 433 anti-corruption police unit.

A covert investigation was initiated several months ago. The investigation was made public two weeks ago when several suspects were taken into custody and interrogated.
