Palestinian arrested on suspicion of threatening to hurt Jews
Known to police for his previous 'threat raids,' claiming to be security forces' ex-informer, Nadim Injaz says police promised him Israeli ID card but failed to deliver
Nadim Injaz, a 30-year-old Palestinian, was arrested by the Tel Aviv Police on Thursday evening on suspicion of threatening to hurt Jews. Injaz, who formerly aided the Israeli security forces, was brought before the Tel Aviv Magistrate's Court on Friday for a remand hearing.
Injaz is suspected of contacting a few parties and telling them that he was going to hurt Jews if he didn’t receive his State identification card.
Troublemaker
Reported Shin Bet informant Nadim Injaz, who barricaded himself inside British embassy last year, apprehended again after demanding to speak to embassy, Israeli defense ministry officials. His temporary resident's permit was set to expire today
Following the incident, Injaz served a prison sentence and was released in October 2007. After his release, he revisited the British Embassy and a few other governmental facilities, threatening the security guards.
The policemen who made it to those scenes were not able to arrest Injaz; so when the same incident repeated itself yet again, they disguised themselves as TV reporters and captured him.
Injas has been claiming all along that the helped the police back in 2000, by serving as their informer in return for monetary compensation. According to him, the security forces promised to grant him an Israeli identification card, but then changed their minds.
