Seven senior Shuvu Banim officials were arrested by Israel
Police on Monday on suspicion of fraud and money laundering at a business in the
city.
Six of them live in Beitar Illit and the seventh in the Mea
Shearim neighborhood of Jerusalem.
One of the suspects is the son of a salesman.
The Central Unit of the Jerusalem Police said that more
arrests are expected.
Allegations against them include tax fraud and money
trafficking to bring funds to mosdos connected with the Breslov Chassidus.
Additional arrests are expected.
Meanwhile, the
founder and Rosh Yeshiva for Shuvu Banim continues to hide in Morocco, since he
is wanted in Israel for alleged crimes. Should he leave Morocco, he may be
arrested and extradited by Interpol.
