Israeli Contractor Arrested for Allegedly Evading NIS 6 Million in Taxes

Israeli building contractor Suib Zagarna was arrested on suspicion of evading approximately 6 million shekels in taxes between 2021 and 2025. The arrest is part of a wider crackdown by tax authorities on the construction sector, which has recently seen other investigations into alleged fraud and money laundering. The Ministry of Construction and Housing has also suspended licenses for five contractors due to employment discrepancies. These actions indicate a significant increase in regulatory enforcement within the industry.
