A stop-work order has been issued for a building site in Tzur Hadassah in the Jerusalem district after it was determined the construction foreman employs illegals. The order was signed by the Jerusalem police chief, effective immediately, for seven days.

Police visited the site on two separate occasions and found four illegals employed on site.

Police officials explain they are working hard to distance illegals from the capital due to security concerns as well as reserving jobs for legal residents.
