An indictment was filed Saturday against the son of a famous singer, who was arrested on suspicion of drug dealing. The 28-year-old resident of Modi'in is accused of possessing drugs not for personal use. His name is currently under a gag order. He was arrested on September 24 after four customers complained they had purchased drugs from him, and his mobile phone contained correspondence with clients. During a search of his vehicle, over half a kilogram of cannabis, divided into dozens of baggies, was found. Some of the baggies were wrapped as gifts.
During his interrogation, the suspect exercised his right to remain silent, even when confronted with evidence. The police prosecution is requesting that he be classified as a "drug dealer" and that his vehicle be confiscated. The prosecution has not ruled out seeking actual jail time.
He was brought before a court on September 24 for an extension of his remand, and the court granted the police's request, extending his detention until October 2 while investigations continued. The suspect was apprehended during an operational activity by officers from the Oz station in the Jerusalem district. Officers noticed a vehicle that aroused their suspicion and signaled the driver to stop for a check, leading to the discovery of the suspected drugs in the car.
