An investigation into the sex affair that allegedly involved two Maccabi Tel Aviv footballers and two underage girls is emerging. A Central Youth Police Exposure Unit is expected to begin the process of gathering the testimonies and interrogations of those involved, as well as witnesses that police believe can shed light and support one or another version of one of the parties.

In the first phase, the police are expected to collect testimony from the girls, who will be asked to tell how the contact with the footballers was formed, what was the nature of the connection, etc. On the other hand, footballers will be investigated for suspected prohibited grounds. Their investigation is expected to be under warning unless the researchers are otherwise impressed.

Due to concerns in such cases, where the parties deleted messages, which may appear to be a concern for disruption of investigative proceedings, the police are expected to ask those involved to deposit their cell phones. If messages are deleted by either party, the police can recover the messages by technological means and thus learn even more about what happened. Evidence will probably also be backed up by another involvement he heard about the case from the girls on social networks, and he was the one who actually reported to the school about what had happened.

Recall that the girls met football players at a party during May with another footballer, whom police would also ask to give testimony from, and the connection with those involved was created through social networks. The same editor by the way, had already expressed himself and said he did not know that it was a minor. This is also known as the version of footballers involved in sex. The girls, on the other hand, claim that everyone involved knew they were high school students. It is not yet clear if the goal is to question the girls for forging IDs. It is believed that since this is a minor offense and is not suspected of the case, they will only be asked questions for the purpose of obtaining the image, and not as an investigation into an offense.

The players themselves, who were taken on holiday by the club they are playing in, are expected to hand over to police through their attorneys, attorneys Adi Carmeli and Yinon Hyman, evidence that they claim is in their hands and supports their version.

We note that the investigative details and identity involved were issued on Thursday for a one-week ban.
