Decreased level: Thieves broke into the house while the owner died

Has the criminal world crossed boundaries and has no code of minimal behavior ethics? According to this story, published on the 'Ashdod Net', and was first revealed by a South radio reporter Dor Gafni, it turns out that the answer is, unfortunately yes.

The family of Mr. Avraham Itach z"l are sitting shiva, and mourning his death since Friday night. However a great distress is also stirring them. Itach aged sixty-nine, was seriously ill and on Friday with deterioration in his condition, his wife, his children and his daughters in law gathered by his bed at the Kaplan Medical Center in Rechovot, to see him during his last moments on earth.

At the same time, one of his sons received a phone call from an associate of the family, asked about his father. Then the man called again and offered to help. Initially, it did not seem as suspicious and the family rejected the need for assistance courtesy. To the dismay of the family, at around eight o'clock Avraham Itach passed away.

Some of the family members who returned home several hours later to start preparing for the funeral arrangements and prepare for the shiva, were shocked to discover that it was broken into and upside down. It turned out that the burglars entered the place and looked for money and property, broke and destroyed everything in their path, but without finding what they wanted they left.

A man who noticed a suspicious occurrence at the scene, reported to the police in real time and not long after two suspects, residents of Ashdod were arrested. Then it turned out that the 'dedicated' call, supposedly interested in the father's situation, only wanted to exploit the situation and make sure there won't be anyone in the house for a successful burglary. It was the end of the intelligence-gathering phase for him, to give the green light for the operation, but he did not know the family recently transferred the prized possessions from their house.

It is suspected that one of two burglars broke in practice and the other was watching the house. The wife of one of them is a lawyer, but it is doubtful she could defend her husband ... Burglary suspect tried to protect his partner and said during the hearing: "I express regret for the incident. Regarding the second suspect, I asked him where the complainant lives and he told me. He did not know what I would do. It was done with innocence"...

Ashdod Police representative, Sergeant Major Yochai Cohen, did not buy the 'rubbish' and said at the hearing: "This is a very serious event, to use the opportunity of the victim in the hospital that unfortunately died and break into his home."

At this point, the arrest of two suspected in the burglary was extended and the investigation continues at the police stattion in Ashdod, where Itach lives.
Itach was an observant Jew. He was a senior port worker, in fact one of the founders of the port. After his retirement, he was busy in the community, including the operation of a neighborhood synagogue.

Joshua Perez, who was the chairman of the working harbor, was a friend of Avraham Itach. He is furious about the burglars and remembered fondly his late friend: "This is a disgrace. These two burglars should be brought to justice, disgusting. Is this a way to add sorrow on sorrow to the family? Exploit the fact that the father is sick in the hospital, and break into his home? These are not people! Avraham was a very dear and good friend, a diligent worker with golden hands who everyone loved.
