The killers of the Israeli rabbi Tzvi Kogan, who was murdered in the United Arab Emirates, have been captured in Turkey.
Security sources reported that the killers were apprehended in a secret operation conducted by the National Intelligence Organization (MIT) and the police.
UAE GOVERNMENT REQUESTED ASSISTANCE FROM TURKEY
In a statement from security sources, the following was noted:
"Since 2020, the UAE government has requested assistance from Turkey after it was determined that three citizens of Uzbekistan had fled after murdering Rabbi KOGAN, who operated a kosher market in Dubai.
Upon the request for assistance, MIT quickly began efforts to capture the perpetrators who killed the rabbi. The operation, initiated by determining which flight they were on, was conducted very secretly to avoid any suspicion.
THEY WERE TRACKED STEP BY STEP
As the individuals landed in Istanbul, the police forces also got involved. To prevent any chaos, the taxi the killers boarded after leaving the airport was tracked step by step by MIT and the police.
THEY WERE CAUGHT RED-HANDED
The taxi they were traveling in was stopped for a traffic check, and as a result of the identity check conducted by the police, three individuals with a search record from the UAE were captured.
Alimbay TAHIROVİÇ, 28, Mahmudcan ABDURRAHİM, 28, and Azizbek KAMİLOVİÇ, 33, who committed the crime, have been extradited to the UAE, the country where the crime was committed.
The Republic of Turkey will continue its sensitive efforts to ensure that no criminals find refuge within its borders as part of its fight against terrorism."
