Border Police officer indicted for stealing, selling police equipment
Arutz Sheva ^ | 1/1/23

The Division for the Investigation of Police officers has submitted to the Jerusalem District Court an indictment against Border Police officer Mohammad Hamza, who stole and sold police weapons.

According to the indictment, Hamza joined the Border Police two years ago, and served at the base in Atarot.

Hamza had access to police equipment, weapons, and ammunition as part of his job, and he used this access to steal, on a number of occasions, police weaponry such as stun grenades and night-vision equipment.

In one case, Hamza even turned to an officer he knew and asked him to steal nine-millimeter bullets, while telling him, "Try to bring something...what did you enlist for?"

In some of the cases, he sold the weapons in exchange for monetary payment. He also would turn to various sources, attempting to make weapons deals with them, including for the police weapons.

According to the indictment, Hamza fired weapons in built-up areas or near people, in some of the cases recording his shootings and sharing the footage with those close to him. In addition, he used drugs, in some cases while on base.

The indictment charges Hamza with crimes of selling weapons, attempting to sell weapons, carrying weapons, possession of ammunition, theft, theft by a public servant, attempts to pressure into other weapons deals, attempts to make other deals for weapons, firing with live fire, connections to crime, and use and possession of a dangerous drug for personal use.

Sorry . . . I have REALLY become jaded over the years . . . . Mohammad . . . ?

I would have found a reason to reject him.

National Security seems to work for the commies, so . . . .

Putting the fox in charge of the henhouse seems to be an overriding policy these days.

If you give nobody in the border service any sense of purpose, and undermine their mission, there will be many foxes in many hen houses. I can’t even begin to fathom what sorts of hanky panky are going on in the US Border Patrol in the present environment.

“Try to bring something...what did you enlist for?”

I was speaking with an Italian about their mandatory military training. He said everyone wanted to be in the supply corps so they could open up restaurants, car repair shops, etc, after they got out.

With a name like Mohammad Hamza, I would have rejected his application because of the STC. (Supposed Terrorist Clause)

Two years, and no one was watching him? Shame on them.
