The Police Investigations Department (PID) has filed a serious indictment against a police officer from the Lev Tel Aviv station. The officer is accused of abusing his authority and committing fraud and breach of trust by arresting a foreign national without legal cause to pursue a sexual relationship with her.
According to the indictment, filed by prosecutor Daniel Arfi, the incident occurred on the night of June 9-10, 2025. The officer responded to a call at the complainant's apartment. Despite having no legal grounds, he informed her she was under arrest, handcuffed her, and took her to the Lev Tel Aviv police station without a valid reason for detention. The woman remained at the station for several hours without being interrogated.
Just before releasing her, the officer allegedly gave her his personal phone number with the intent of initiating a sexual relationship. The indictment details that the officer's pursuit continued after her release. While on duty, he rode his scooter to her apartment and entered it. He visited her apartment on three separate occasions, sometimes while on active duty, and on one occasion engaged in sexual intercourse with her.
The indictment also describes further alleged abuses of power. In one instance, when the woman asked for help collecting a debt from a friend, the officer indirectly indicated he would only assist if she agreed to have sex with him again, leaving angrily when she refused. On another occasion, he used his access to police systems to obtain confidential information about the arrest of her acquaintance, a case unrelated to him, and shared details of the suspicions with her.
