The Police Internal Investigations Department (Machash) arrested an intelligence coordinator serving in the Israel Police's Coastal District on Tuesday evening on suspicion of bribery and abuse of power. The suspect was questioned and subsequently released under restrictive conditions, including a ban from entering any police station until Sunday. The arrest follows an earlier investigation into the same coordinator, whom The Zioneer reported earlier on Tuesday was being investigated for abuse of power by Machash. The formal bribery allegation now represents an escalation of the probe. Further details on the circumstances of the alleged bribery have not yet been released.
