Police on protection in the north: "The criminals are harming businesses because of our activities"
A spokeswoman for the Northern District Police claimed in an interview on 103FM that the reason for the increase in the scope of the sponsorship fee phenomenon in the area is increased enforcement.
"She is disconnected," accused the daughter of the business owner who was allegedly set on fire in Hatzor HaGlilit, saying that "it is a circle of more than a decade. There is not a single business that has not been burned, shot or threatened."

Nissim Gigi, the owner of the business that burned down yesterday in the industrial area of Hatzor HaGlilit, protested this morning (Monday) about the protection of protection in the north.
In a joint interview with his daughter Rebecca on 103FM, the two said that the collection of sponsorship fees has been going on without interruption for more than a decade, and said that this is the second time they have been affected by the phenomenon.
On the other hand, the police claimed that they had recently increased enforcement - but the move only increased the frequency of cases.
"We are a family that has experienced this once before. It is terrorism, it is no longer protection," Nissim stated.
"My daughter sees it for the second time in her life. It happened at 11:00 at night. I rent the business, no one told me, if they said I would notify the police, I am the only one who always notifies. I can not speak on behalf of my merchants."
"The unbelievable is happening again, this is a recurring post-trauma. At 13 you are in the same place and so again at 22. The smell of soot, the sights, the heat, the flames," the daughter shared.
"In our locality, of course, more businesses are affected. This is a circle that began about 11 years ago. There is no business here in the industrial area here and around that will say they did not burn, shoot, threaten it. There is not one business. A system of solar panels that went, took so long to prepare. "

Northern District Police spokeswoman Leah Leshem replied that "in order to reach solutions it needs to be multi-system. We do a lot on the issue and are waging a war of attrition. There are crazy forces in the area. To fight this phenomenon, the law needs to be changed. "To set up a security company, and in the end the victims know not to mess with it. For a very long time it was quiet in the area, it's not all business, and we did not hear about it."
"She is disconnected, she does not live here," Rebecca attacked in response, and Leah replied with a puzzling explanation.
"Recently we have seen damage to some businesses, and it is happening because of the activity of the police. There is no protection here, but a message to the police to get off their backs. To fight them, it is impossible to make arrests. True, as a result of our activity there is an increase in criminal activity."
