Document Forgery

An investigation by the Central District's Fraud and Cyber Unit has led to the arrest of a 60-year-old lawyer from Tira. The suspect allegedly forged documents to falsely lead courts, police, and the Licensing Office to believe that disqualified drivers had surrendered their licenses, while they continued to drive.

An insurance agent who defrauded his clients and pocketed more than 225,000 shekels was sentenced to nine months of community service, a 5,000 shekel fine, and compensation. For four years, he sold 47 clients forged compulsory insurance certificates from the "Menora" company, copying payment stamps from other policies and leaving them without insurance coverage.
