Border Police Officers Investigated for Car Theft Include Security Chief's Son

One of three Border Police officers being investigated under caution by the Police Internal Investigations Department (Mahash) for suspected car theft is the son of a security organization chief. The officers are suspected of spotting a parked car with keys inside during a patrol in the Jerusalem periphery. Without legal authority, the three allegedly drove the vehicle, causing damage to nearby cars, before abandoning it without reporting the incident to their superiors. Following their questioning, the three officers were released on condition that they stay away from police facilities for 15 days.

The investigation was launched after the incident, which occurred during a patrol. Mahash is handling the case, focusing on the alleged unauthorized use of the vehicle and the damage caused. The involvement of the son of a prominent security figure adds a layer of complexity to the ongoing inquiry.
