Police have arrested current and former officials from the Nazareth municipality, along with members of the Bakri crime family, following overnight raids. The arrests are part of an undercover investigation into the alleged transfer of large sums of municipal funds to the criminal gang, which police say harmed the city and its residents. Authorities claim that the Bakri crime family effectively took control of Nazareth's financial management. Reports indicate that a former mayor is among those detained.
