Officer who worked when phone call from kidnapped teen was received won’t be fired
The shift manager at the police’s 100 hotline during the kidnap and murder of three Israeli teenage boys near the Gush Etzion in June, 2014 will not be fired, and will be promoted, even though other officers who failed to respond appropriately to a telephone call from one of the kidnapped teens were fired.
A report drafted by an investigative committee and approved by former police commissioner Yohanan Danino two years ago stated that the officers dismissed the call as a prank and neglected to convey the information to the army immediately, as they were supposed to do.
