Israeli citizen extradited to Poland on suspicion of drug trafficking, money laundering worth billions

|
An Israeli citizen was extradited from the Netherlands to Poland on suspicion of heading an international crime organization. According to an official statement by the Polish police, Shalom Lior Azoulay (40) is suspected of being involved in money laundering from drug smuggling to the tune of 1.4 billion zlotys (about NIS 1.2 billion), and involvement in drug trafficking worth 3.4 billion zlotys (about NIS 3 billion). Azoulay, nicknamed 'Shelly,' was previously linked to the Meir Abergil crime organization, but later operated independently. He was arrested in Amsterdam on October 29 after landing on a connecting flight from Colombia. Recently, he waged a legal battle to prevent his extradition to the Poles, but was unsuccessful. If convicted, he is expected to receive a 12-year prison sentence.
