Mali and Liel Yahalomi, an Israeli mother and daughter who had fled Israel, were arrested in Namibia, in southwestern Africa, on suspicion of possessing forged passports, Israeli police were informed. Contact with the two was lost in Vienna in August, raising concerns of a serious security incident. About a week later, they were located on a bus in Argentina and released after questioning by an Israeli police representative in South America, who found no suspicion of criminal activity. Their disappearance was apparently motivated by financial distress.
