Alona Shoshan, the Head of the Police Human Resources Department, is resigning from her position following an investigation against her and after months of being removed from the organization. The investigation into Shoshan began in June with the Competition Authority, on suspicion of witness tampering, in connection with the case of Israel Prison Service Commissioner Kobi Yaacobi. It is suspected that Shoshan recorded Lior Abudraham, the former head of the Police Spokesperson Unit and a key witness in the case, in an attempt to undermine his credibility. Following the investigation, Shoshan was removed from the police force and did not return to her role. Shoshan has denied the allegations against her. Concurrently, she filed a complaint against Abudraham for alleged sexual harassment, which he denies.
