Two police officers probed on suspicion of fabricating evidence, interfering with investigation

Authorities are investigating two police officers on suspicion of fabricating evidence, interfering with an investigation and conspiring to commit a crime, a police-probing body in the State Attorney’s Office says.

The Department of Internal Police Investigations (DIPI) arrested one of the suspected officers after interrogating him. The second suspect was released to house arrest.

The detained officer was brought this morning to the Tel Aviv Magistrate’s Court for an extension on his remand. The investigation is ongoing, the DIPI notes.
