Israel Police are set to indict 12 members of the Abu Latif crime family, including leader Latif Abu Latif, for using blackmail and extortion to obtain local government contracts. The indictments come after an investigation into the criminal organization's takeover of tenders from the state, government, and local authorities. The family is suspected of extorting tenders from the Defense Ministry and has cost hundreds of millions of shekels over the years. The police arrests in February aimed to halt the group's economic activity, estimated to reach hundreds of millions of shekels.
