A 32-year-old resident of Bat Yam was arrested Friday on suspicion of involvement in the murder of an Israeli citizen in Bulgaria approximately one month ago. Police stated the suspect was apprehended based on an international arrest warrant issued against him. The murder occurred in Bulgaria on October 14, when the victim, also an Israeli citizen, was present in the country. The Israeli Police have launched a joint investigation with the Bulgarian Police, during which a temporary arrest warrant was issued for the suspect's extradition. Following his arrest, the suspect is expected to appear in court for proceedings related to his extradition. Police reported that upon suspecting his involvement in the murder, a joint effort began involving the "Yalpan Ayalon" unit, the operational coordination department of the intelligence division of the State Attorney's Office's international department, and the Bulgarian Police. This intensive investigative and operational activity aimed to gather evidence and apprehend the suspect, leading to the temporary arrest warrant for extradition.
