Police said to fear revenge attack in Israel after crime boss killed in Mexico

Israeli authorities fear that a revenge attack will be carried out in Israel soon following the assassination of an organized crime figure in Mexico, Channel 12 reports.

One of the two victims was a well-known Israeli crime boss, Tel Aviv native Ben Suthi, who completed a lengthy prison sentence in Israel in February.

Israeli police sources earlier told the Ynet news site that there is “no doubt” the murder was “commissioned by those with interests in Israel.” Israeli police reportedly suspect that an Israeli criminal organization paid a local group in Mexico City to carry out the hit.
