The Tel Aviv District Court has upheld a restrictive administrative detention order against Yossi Musli, a prominent Israeli crime boss. The order, issued on August 16, 2026, confines Musli to house arrest until at least September 19 and prohibits him from contacting 91 individuals, mostly key figures in Israel's criminal underworld. This move follows suspicions of Musli's involvement in grenade attacks targeting branches of the Japnika chain.

Under the court's restrictions, Musli is barred from using the internet or leaving Israel, and his daily phone calls are limited. The list of banned contacts includes family members such as his father Nissim Musli and brothers Eli and Shay Musli, as well as notable crime figures like Amir Molner, who once allied with Musli's organization, and Eyal Nagar, a southern crime leader recently arrested in an extortion operation. Other prohibited contacts include Hossam Hariri, Itzik Bar-Mocha, and Yaniv Ben Simon, a fugitive wanted for extradition in connection with a high-profile drug and bombing case.

The order also forbids Musli from communicating with owners of a football club, highlighting the breadth of his criminal network. Police stated that this step is part of an ongoing effort to combat organized crime that threatens public security, emphasizing their commitment to dismantling criminal infrastructures nationwide.

This case sheds light on the complex alliances and rivalries within Israel's organized crime scene, revealing the intricate "map of crime" that authorities are striving to disrupt. Musli's detention and the sweeping communication ban aim to curtail his influence and prevent further violent incidents linked to his network.
