Border Police Officers Investigated for Alleged Car Theft and Misuse of Authority
The Police Investigations Department has questioned three Border Police officers under caution on suspicion of multiple offenses, including car theft, unauthorized use of a vehicle, and abuse of office. The incident reportedly occurred during a patrol in the Jerusalem periphery.
According to the suspicions, the officers noticed a parked car with keys inside. Without legal authority, they allegedly drove the vehicle, causing damage to nearby cars, before abandoning it without reporting the incident to their superiors. The stolen vehicle has not yet been recovered.
Following their interrogation, the three officers were released under the condition that they stay away from police facilities for 15 days. The investigation is ongoing.
