A resident of Baqa al-Gharbiyye was arrested on Sunday on suspicion of filing a false report to the police, claiming her husband intended to carry out a terror attack. The report triggered a large-scale police response, involving numerous forces and operational and technological resources, to locate and apprehend the husband.
However, the investigation revealed that the couple was in the midst of a divorce dispute. Following this discovery, security concerns regarding the husband were dismissed. The police's focus then shifted to the wife, with suspicions growing that she had provided a false report.
