It is being widely reported in the Israeli media, that Israeli police have issued an international arrest warrant for Boaz Yona, the CEO of Cheftziba, the construction company that filed for bankruptcy last week – after leaving thousands of Chareidi families homeless [as reported HERE on YW].
The warrant was reportedly circulated to Interpol stations throughout the world.
Haaretz is reporting that Yona fled Israel two weeks ago, just a few hours before the public learned that the real estate group he led, Cheftziba, was crumbling. The police suspect that fraud and embezzlement were involved, by company officials and possibly by officials at banks that lent money for Cheftziba projects as well. The banks deny any such criminal behavior on their part.

does this mean he is on the YW ‘most wanted’ list? if so where is his picture?
Everyone who reads this please take a moment to daven that Boaz ben Hefziba (as I understand it the company was named after his mother) should do teshuva shleima and give back all the money that he owes everyone and do everything else in his power to make sure all his creditors get everything that’s coming to them, and that he not have any benefit or enjoyment from any aveiros or other illegal or unethical activities he may have done. Thank you for your tefilos on our behalf.
CATCH THE CROOK!!!!!!!!!!!
Is there a reason that you need a psak from a “rabbi” regarding naming the bungalow colony owner, but you freely publish the name of a Jew in Israel ACCUSED of stealing money?
He is a Jew isn’t he?

This person, is only being ACCUSED by a few people of being a Ganav.
