ISRAELI national Shalom Avitan, who is said to be an associate of a notorious Jewish mob syndicate, was reportedly en route to assassinate the head of a rival gang before he was arrested by the Malaysian police on March 27.

Today, he was charged at the Kuala Lumpur sessions court with possession and trafficking of firearms involving 158 bullets and six guns. The police investigation continues into Avitan’s claims he had come to Malaysia to assassinate another Israeli named Eran Haya due to “family issues”. – April 12, 2024
