Prisons Service officer suspected of attempting to extort sex

The police Investigations and Intelligence Branch, a unit known as Lahav 433, says it arrested yesterday a Prisons Service officer on suspicion of repeatedly threatening a fellow officer in an effort to convince her to have sex with him.

A police statement following the joint police-Prisons Service investigation characterizes the threats made by the suspect as “severe.”

Police are preparing to charge the suspect with extortion, threats and harassment. His first court appearance is today at the Rishon Lezion Magistrate’s Court.
