The wife of a detained security coordinator (Rabbatz") in Samaria has broken her silence, criticizing the "terrorist-like" manner of her husband's arrest and his continued detention by the Shin Bet. She met with Yossi Dagan, the Head of the Samaria Regional Council, demanding her husband's release and asserting he would have appeared for questioning voluntarily if asked.
Dagan has joined the call for the security official's release to house arrest, emphasizing that he is a highly regarded security figure who recently received a brigade commendation. The wife stated that her husband, described as a principled and valued security professional, would have presented himself for investigation without the need for a pre-dawn arrest at his home in front of his family.
She further protested the duration of his detention in Shin Bet facilities, calling it unjustified and inappropriate, especially given the method of arrest. Dagan echoed these sentiments, highlighting the man's official role and responsibility for a significant area in Samaria. He noted the individual's long-standing cooperation with the IDF and security forces, earning professional praise and a brigade commendation on Rosh Hashanah.
Dagan demanded the security official be moved to house arrest, arguing that continued detention in Shin Bet facilities is unwarranted. He called for the investigation to be handled by military police and civilian police, not with methods reserved for terrorists. The council head expressed full support for the detained man's wife and all security personnel in Judea and Samaria, urging all systems to secure his release.
