Israeli tourist arrested in airport after bullets are found in his luggage

An Israeli ex-soldier was arrested Thursday in Uzbekistan's capital of Tashkent after airport security found 13 rifle rounds in his luggage.

 

The bullets were apparently forgotten in his bag which used him in his military service.

 

The ex-soldier was on his way to a vacation in Thailand. He is held in the airport ever since.

 

The Israeli consulate in Uzbekistan has so far failed to negotiate his release. It is awaiting the decision of security forces, with a possibility for the tourist to be transferred to the city's police station and even indicted.
