The Justice Ministry internal affairs department on Monday filed an indictment with the Lod District Court against two border patrol members and an IDF soldier for allegedly handcuffing Eritrean and Chinese construction workers in order to steal from them.
An earlier ministry statement said that the three were suspected of a series of armed robberies against such foreign workers.
