My uncle Ashkenazi was arrested in Greece last week, when he arrived with his wife Racheli on vacation on the island of Kos.
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.
