Two civilian contract workers have been arrested on suspicion of smuggling prohibited items into a correctional facility in central Israel. The arrests were made during a joint operation by the Prisons Service's Special Investigations Unit and the Central District Police. The operation began two days prior, following suspicions against one of the workers, which later expanded to include a second contract worker.
During searches of the suspects' vehicles and prison cells, investigators discovered prohibited items that had been skillfully concealed within an ordinary object. Both contract workers were apprehended and taken for further interrogation by the Prisons Service's investigation division. Their access to all correctional facilities in Israel has been immediately revoked.
The Prisons Service stated that it will continue to act with determination and zero tolerance against any attempts to introduce prohibited items into prisons.
