Police source reveals how criminal organization operates – Israel News

Police source reveals how criminal organization operates – Israel News

A senior police official said the police's five-year plan for 2025-2023 must focus on the financial networks of criminal organisations.

“The strength of an organization is based on its money. A lack of money leads to the disappearance of the organization,” the source said.

The source explained that most of the money belonging to “criminal organizations and crime families comes from two main sources: bogus invoices and large-scale control of public tenders.”

According to the source, the police assume “that there is a collaborator of the criminal organizations in every public organization” and how the police track them down.

According to him, the damage caused by crimes related to bogus invoices is estimated at NIS 20 billion per year, with tax refunds for these crimes alone costing the state about NIS 3.4 billion annually.

The elite police units in Lahav 433 are determined to crack down on these organizations and undermine their economic performance to prevent them from taking control of public tenders.

How the organizations work

The official said that criminal organizations take control of contractors or permanent winners of large public tenders or provide services to these winners, essentially becoming the big profiteers. This was reflected in the public tender fraud case uncovered in the Ministry of Defense, where the tenders were transferred to the same contractor working on behalf of a criminal organization.

“The Ministry of Defense paid large sums and received contracts at a very low level,” the official said following the public tender.

The official explained that the contractor who won the tenders shared the money with his partners, causing huge losses to the state. In fact, the product was bad; it was manufactured by criminals and sometimes illegal immigrants through a fake company and with fake invoices. The official added, further confirming that the criminal organization had gained a lot from such an operation in the meantime.

The criminal organization made a huge profit from each project, estimated at hundreds of thousands of shekels.

“The proposal has been submitted to the Ministry of Finance and the Ministry of Treasury and we need to set up a joint regulator and of course work to break this system once and for all,” the source said.

“Legislation must be pushed forward that disqualifies and excludes from participating in tenders any company caught distributing bogus invoices and committing public procurement offences, while at the same time taking measures to close the company down.

“In this way, companies will cut their ties with criminal organizations,” the source said.

“Such an attack by all law enforcement agencies will lead to the collapse of criminal organizations.”

“An organization without money is a dead organization,” the official concluded.
