In the video: Dudi Ashkenazi in a recording from a prison in Greece (Walla!)

Dudi Ashkenazi, the Israeli who was arrested on the Greek island of Kos on the grounds that he is wanted by Interpol, thanked everyone who supports him and works to release him - it was heard in the recording, that the Greek authorities allowed its publication today (Thursday).

"I have been sitting in jail for nine days for no wrong in my hand, for something I did not do at all, I very much hope that everyone will help me return home, to my country, which I love the most in the world," he said.

Ashkenazi stressed that his condition was fine and expressed his hope that he would be released from prison in Greece "as soon as possible."

"I hope it will be tomorrow so I can come to Kiddush with my beloved family," he noted.

"Even if I'm not here, strong for you. Do everything you can to get me out of here as quickly as possible. Be strong," he said.

The district prosecutor in Rhodes today met for the second time with Ashkenazi's lawyer, Nir Jaslovitch.

At the meeting, he was given documents that strengthen the assumption that Ashkenazi is not the man Interpol is looking for.

Thus, for example, it was clarified that the Uzbek passport, allegedly belonging to an Ashkenazi, was forged by a person whose identity is known.

At the end of the meeting, Advocate Jaslowicz expressed optimism that the affair before it ended and thanked the Greek authorities for their cooperation and willingness to work together to expose the mistake.

Ashkenazi, a 52-year-old resident of Bat Hefer in the Hefer Valley, was arrested under an international arrest warrant issued by Interpol against him for drug offenses he allegedly committed in Peru in 2012. However, he claims he was not in Peru at the time and claims he made a mistake And used it while committing offenses around the world.

His family is now working to prove his innocence.

As reported in Walla !, the event that is at the center of the international affair took place in the city of Lima, the capital of Peru, on June 16, 2012. The man wanted by the Peruvians and known as "El Doc" (in Spanish, "the Doctor") holds dual Azerbaijani-Israeli citizenship. , An international criminal organization involved in smuggling drugs from Peru to Russia, by air.

Somehow, Peru handles this affair about the car appraiser Dudi Ashkenazi who at that time was a driver and manager in the "Dan" cooperative.

Significant reinforcement of the claim that this is an Interpol error arises from an Interpol error, even in the case of another Israeli bearing the same name.

Dudu Ashkenazi, a 38-year-old employee insurance agent from Kfar Saba, married with two children, who went on a trip to Morocco in 2015, was detained at a connection in Brussels and passport control informed him that there was a request from Sweden for his extradition.

He was returned to Israel and it turned out that a citizen from Azerbaijan obtained his passport that was stolen in Israel and then tried to assassinate someone in Sweden.

"My name has been added to the Interpol list of people who are barred from entering 24 countries that have signed a joint treaty on the matter," he said.

He further said that to this day he is afraid to leave the country lest he be detained and only because of his name.
