Israel: Security guards fail to catch cop posing as female bomber
|
Serious security lapses were exposed on Wednesday when a police officer posing as a female suicide bomber successfully entered a train station and commercial centers in the Petah Tikva and Rosh Ha'ayin areas without being checked by security personnel. The Sharon region police officer arrived Wednesday morning at the Yarkonim train station in Petah Tikva holding a bag containing two dummy bombs and large fake grenades. The officer was wearing long clothing and concealed the bag of fake explosives beneath a coat. The security guard at the train station entrance did not examine the undercover officer's bag, nor did he make use of his handheld metal detector to check the "suicide bomber."
Identical security lapses were exposed when the officer succeeded in entering - again undetected - a number of malls in the Petah Tikva and Rosh Ha'ayin areas. Police said the fake bombs would have been easily detected by the handheld metal detectors used by private security guards. Police said senior officers will meet with the chief security officer at the Petah Tikva train station and with the managers of the private companies securing the Rosh Ha'ayin and Petah Tikva malls involved in the undercover operation. Sharon region police, who carried out the operation, are responsible for checking the alertness of civilian security guards within its district.
Think they need any added motivation after the five recent attacks within 48 hours?
For those of you in New Mexico, the DoD is taking apps for Terrorist Infiltrator positions to test their own security measures.
