The case of missing Israelis Mali Yalom and her daughter Liel in Austria has been transferred to a secret investigation. Instead of Mossad and Shin Bet, the search is now handled by the 'LAHAV 433' unit, which investigates major economic crimes. On the same day, the case files were classified. This was reported by Channel 12. According to an unofficial police source, the investigation was transferred to the department for combating serious economic crimes due to its extensive contacts with Interpol and law enforcement agencies of other countries. The source emphasized that the unit's officers are using their connections, with assistance from a police representative at Interpol. The search for the women, who disappeared in Vienna several days ago, is complicated by legal and bureaucratic restrictions. Investigators have so far been unable to access key information that could shed light on the women's movements after their disappearance. Earlier, 'Kursor' reported that Israel Police Chief Dani Levi ordered all available forces and resources to be deployed for the search. The missing are mother and daughter Mali and Liel Yahalomi, with whom contact has been lost since Friday. Investigators have established some circumstances of the incident, but their current whereabouts remain unknown.
