Israel Tax Authority inspectors visited the Mosioff Shul in the Bucharim area of the capital following reports of person employed off the books. The shul is well known and serves thousands daily who daven and learn in the shul.
It appears that a harsh machlokes between a shul employee and an askan led to a phone call to tax authorities, reporting illegal activities in the shul. There are conflicting reports the shul employee has been fired as a result while others report he simply has stopped coming in.
Tax officials confirm inspections are carried out from time to time, unwilling to release additional information.

Disgusting!
If they are doing the halachic and moral correct thing they have nothing to worry about
Does Israel have whistleblower protection laws?
So, what’s the news here? (i) that there is machlokes in a yeshiva, or (ii) that a yeshiva is a tax cheat? I hope that neither case is news in the man-bites-dog sense of “news”.
