He is suspected of tax evasion in the amount of more than two million shekels.
The promoter, a 44-year-old Ashkelon resident, was detained on Tuesday on suspicion that his bank account served as a "laundromat" for income and representation of artists who were not reported to the tax authorities in the amount of more than one million shekels.
Deposits in the amount of more than NIS 1 million that were not reported to the tax authorities were located in his account during the years 2020-2015.
