Israel's Police Internal Investigations Department (Mahash) has filed an indictment against a police officer from the Beit She'an station for committing indecent acts and sexual harassment against female officers. According to the indictment, the officer was on patrol in a police car with a female colleague when he drove to an isolated grove. There, he allegedly made sexual remarks about her body, then proceeded to massage her back, arms, and legs without her consent. The indictment further states he touched her genital area with his thumb over her clothing while she attempted to protect herself. After leaving the vehicle, the accused officer allegedly pressed himself against her, hugged her, and kissed her neck.

In a separate incident detailed in the indictment, the officer allegedly behaved similarly toward a new recruit. He drove her to secluded areas and asked about her sexual habits, despite her requests for him to stop.
