Local Council Worker Arrested for Allegedly Planting Listening Device
Israeli police arrested a 65-year-old local council employee from Gush Halav in northern Israel on suspicion of installing a covert listening device in the council offices. The investigation was initiated following a complaint filed by the local authority. Investigators from the Northern District's fraud department found evidence supporting the suspicion, and further evidence linking the suspect to the act was discovered in his possession.
Authorities are expected to request an extension of his remand at the Tiberias Magistrate's Court on Tuesday morning. The specific details of the device and the motive behind its alleged installation have not yet been released.
