Jerusalem police arrest Fatah member for funding party activities in the capital
Jerusalem Police arrest a Fatah party representative in Jerusalem for transferring funds to the Palestinian faction’s activities in Jerusalem, which is illegal under Israeli law, a police spokesperson says.
The man, age 42, is also suspected of tax offenses valued at hundreds of thousands of shekels, apparently linked to the transfers.
The suspect will face a court hearing on Friday.
The police action “prevented the illegal transfer of sums of money for illegal Fatah activities in Israel,” the spokesperson says.
