mass murderer Malka

Israeli Military Prosecutors Office decided Monday not to prosecute former Givati Brigade commander, Ilan Malka, who is responsible for killing 21 members of al-Samuni family during an air strike that targeted the city of Gaza, according to Maariv newspaper.

It said that Malka approved bombing a building in Zaytouna neighborhood in Gaza, killing 21 Palestinians and injuring another 19.

Military investigating police has previously interrogated Malka, the brigade commander during the Israeli attack on Gaza, who claimed that he was “unaware of the civilians’ presence in the building.”

The current Israeli public prosecutor will only reprimand Malka instead of putting him on trail.

IDF officer arrested over NIS 2.5 million drug-trafficking scandal

Undercover investigation ties high-ranking IDF major, along with eight others, to drug trafficking ring along Egypt border.

A 31-year-old Israel Defense Forces major was arrested on suspicion of drug trafficking, it emerged on Sunday after a gag order on the affair was lifted. The major was arrested along with nine others involved in a drug trafficking ring, including two military police officers under the major’s command.

The drug ring was uncovered in late August after police stopped a car for a routine traffic check and found the driver driving without a driver’s license, ultimately leading to the car being towed. The tow-truck driver soon realized he was being followed by a suspicious vehicle, and decided to call the police. The police stopped the suspicious vehicle, and found 15 kilograms of hash in the towed car.

The towed car, along with the drugs were traced back to a man who was allegedly part of a drug trafficking ring, which had been smuggling drugs from the Egyptian border, and was likely linked to a high-ranking IDF officer.

The complex undercover case made its way to the Tel Aviv central police unit, which was able to tie the drug ring to an IDF major in the Southern Command, ultimately leading to his arrest, along with that of eight others. According to police sources, the ring was able to traffic 200 kilograms of hash, 25 kilograms of heroin, worth a total of NIS 2.5 million.

Top brass IDF officials were stunned to find out that the officer was involved in the drug ring, and are currently looking into reformulating the military’s policies against smuggling. Israel police were surprised to find out the ease with which one can move contraband across the border.

The case is being treated with utmost severity, as it is the first time that a high-ranking officer has been arrested for such a crime.

Soldiers in the Gaza Division, where the suspect served, were dumbfounded to find out that a person in such a high position could be guilty of drug trafficking. “He was an outstanding officer with a lot of responsibility”, said one of the division officers. “It is hard for all of us to believe the news."

Israeli court sentences hit-and-run driver to 12 years in prison

Tal Mor was convicted of killing Shneor Cheshin, son of former Supreme Court justice Mishael Cheshin, with his car while inebriated.

Petah Tikva's District Court sentenced a man on Sunday to 12 years in prison, over a 2010 for a hit-and-run accident which killed the son of a former Supreme Court justice Mishael Cheshin.

Tal Mor, who in June of 2010 ran over Shneor Cheshin and fled the scene, was convicted earlier this month by the Petah Tikva District Court of vehicular manslaughter; leaving the victim at the scene of the accident; driving under the influence of drugs and alcohol; obstruction of justice and driving without a license and insurance.

The court also ordered Mor to compensate the Chesin family with 30,000 NIS, adding that the driver's license will be revoked for 20 years following his prison sentence.

In his sentence, judge Zeharya Casspi said he felt sentences given to those "who take to the wheel drunk" should be increased, adding that "this sentence should be hung from on the walls of every bar."

Mor's attorney was pleased with the sentence, saying that "12 years in prison is less than what the prosecution had requested."

Following his conviction, prosecutor Aviv Sharon said the state did not feel there was any reason for lenience in Mor's case, since hours before the accident Mor had been at three different pubs and had drank copious amounts of alcohol. His blood alcohol was three times the legal limit and he had also taken drugs.

Sharon also said that the court had set a high bar in terms of punishment for similar crimes, citing the case of the hit-and-run driver Shai Simon, who was sentenced to 14 years in prison for killing Meital Aharonson.

According to the driver's conviction, an inebriated Mor hit Chesin as he was cycling along Highway 5 and, despite the fact that the victim was wearing a florescent vest and that his bicycle was equipped with flashlights.

Cheshin's body was slammed against Mor's hood and windshield and fell to the wayside. He was killed instantly.

Mor, who realized that he had hit a person, did not stop to estimate his condition, and continued driving to his home in Kefar Baruch. Upon arrival, he covered his windshield, and called his insurance agent to inform him that his car had slipped and that he had hit a tree.

During the trial, Mor alleged that he had indeed hit Cheshin with his car, but denied that the accident was the cause for the victim's death, saying that is was possible that another car had hit Cheshin later on.
Following his conviction, Mor addressed the court, asking for mercy and for forgiveness from his victim's family.
