''Partied' with a stolen credit card - and fell into a trap of police officers posing as couriers

7 June 2023   

Last night (Tuesday), Shefela Police Station officers posed as couriers from a liquor store - as part of an undercover investigation conducted by the Ramla police station - and arrested a city resident while he was waiting for the "delivery of bottles" he had purchased for thousands of shekels using a stolen credit card. Addictive: Everything you need to know about the harm of e-cigarettes The arrest was made after Ramla police officers, with the assistance of Shephela Yasm fighters, opened an investigation last night, upon receiving a complaint of suspected fraud using a stolen credit card, when the suspect purchased bottles of alcohol worth thousands of shekels. In preparation for the mission, Yasm unit officers posed as couriers and coordinated a meeting with the suspect, a Ramla resident in his twenties, to deliver the shipment of bottles of alcohol. Upon his arrival at the meeting place in Ramla, they arrested him - and after an investigation, he was imprisoned. The police intend to bring him to a hearing today at the Rishon Lezion Magistrate's Court, with a request to extend his detention in accordance with the needs of the investigation.
