In a series of dramatic events in Kuala Lumpur, an Israeli national, Shalom Avitan, was apprehended by police with six pistols and 200 rounds of ammunition at a hotel on Jalan Ampang. Initially thought to be a spy seeking revenge for a grenade attack in Tel Aviv, Avitan was later identified as a gang hitman plotting to kill a mafia rival in Malaysia. The 36-year-old Israeli's arrest sent shockwaves through the city as details of his sinister mission unfolded.

Reports from Israeli news site Mako revealed that Shalom Avitan, instead of a spy, was a hired assassin on a mission to eliminate the head of a rival crime family. Malaysian authorities intervened just in time to prevent a potentially violent clash between crime syndicates in the country. Avitan's presence in Malaysia raised concerns over international criminal activities infiltrating the region, sparking a wave of speculations and investigations.

The unfolding saga of the Israeli 'spy' turned gang hitman captivated the public and authorities alike. The mysterious motives behind Avitan's mission left many questioning the extent of transnational criminal networks operating in Southeast Asia. As the investigation delves deeper into Avitan's connections and intentions, the case sheds light on the intricate web of underworld alliances and vendettas that transcend borders.

In a surprising twist, the man initially thought to be an Israeli spy seeking revenge on a countryman was, in fact, a notorious gang hitman with a deadly agenda. With the arrest of Shalom Avitan, Malaysian authorities successfully averted a potential crisis, highlighting the importance of vigilant law enforcement in combating organized crime activities. The incident serves as a stark reminder of the hidden dangers posed by international criminals and their illicit operations.
