Border Police officers at the Az-Zeim checkpoint near Jerusalem apprehended seven illegal residents of Israel yesterday, including a driver who allegedly disguised himself as an ultra-Orthodox Jew. The officers became suspicious of a vehicle and stopped it for inspection. During the search, they discovered six illegal residents without permits inside the car. The driver, also an illegal resident, was found to have grown peyot (sidelocks) and was wearing Haredi attire and a kippah in an apparent attempt to conceal his identity and evade detection.

Further investigation revealed that the vehicle had been taken off the road and its license plates had been replaced. The seven individuals, identified as residents of the Hebron and Tulkarm areas, were arrested and transferred for further investigation. The vehicle was impounded and is subject to confiscation.
