Eyal Rosen, a former manager suspected of stealing over 9 million shekels from the company Gibui Holdings, was extradited from Portugal to Israel on Thursday. Rosen is accused of using sophisticated fraud schemes, laundering money, and fleeing the country in 2022 before an open investigation was launched against him.
The investigation, led by the Israel Securities Authority, alleges that Rosen, while managing Gibui Holdings Ltd., embezzled company funds through complex fraudulent methods. He is also suspected of laundering the stolen money and providing misleading information in the public company's reports to investors.
Rosen left Israel in 2022, prior to the commencement of a public investigation. The State Prosecutor's Office's International Department, in collaboration with the Interpol unit of the Israel Police, worked to locate him. He was eventually found and arrested in Portugal, and authorities there approved his extradition.
Rosen was brought to Israel on Thursday by representatives of the Israel Police and the Israel Securities Authority. Officials from the State Prosecutor's Office emphasized that his extradition demonstrates the cooperation between law enforcement agencies to apprehend and prosecute criminals globally.
