Leaked information to criminals: Court employee arrested for questioning
A court clerk was arrested for investigation on suspicion of leaking documents and updating criminal elements and offenders about the issuance of an arrest warrant against them. The police are requesting to extend her detention.
The Central Unit in the Shai District has opened an investigation into the suspected leak of classified information from the court to criminal elements. The information was obtained by an undercover agent from one of the crime organizations.
According to suspicions, employees in the judicial system transferred information from classified discussions that took place behind closed doors to unauthorized parties, causing serious harm to investigative procedures and endangering human lives.
Yesterday, a court employee was arrested for investigation on suspicion of leaking information, removing a document from custody by a public servant, and obstructing investigative procedures. Today, the suspect, a 21-year-old resident of Jerusalem, will be brought to a hearing regarding the police's request to extend her detention.
