The man, identified as Omri Goren, reportedly has a criminal record but worked at Defence Minister Benny Gantz's home as a cleaner and caretaker.

His arrest raised questions about the thoroughness of background checks of people with access to Israel's leaders. The Shin Bet security service, which announced the arrest, said it was reviewing its vetting procedures.
