Family Says Indian Man Shot at Israel Border Was a Victim of Job Scam

The family of an Indian man who was shot at the Israel border is claiming that he was tricked into a job scam. The man, who has not been named Thomas Gabriel Perera , was involved in a shooting incident while trying to cross into Israel. The family now believes he was misled by a fake job offer.

According to his relatives, the man was promised a good job in Israel, but it turned out to be a scam. They say he was tricked by a recruitment agency that made false promises. Instead of finding work, he was left in a dangerous situation. His family believes he didn’t know about the risks involved when he tried to reach the border.

The incident happened near the Israel-Gaza border, a highly secure area because of ongoing conflicts. The family claims the man was shot by Israeli soldiers when he didn’t follow their warnings while trying to cross. However, they argue that he wasn’t trying to enter Israel for anything illegal—he was just a victim of a scam.

One family member said, "We believe he wasn’t a criminal, but a young man who was tricked. He just wanted a better life and got caught by dishonest people."

The family is now asking for an investigation into the recruitment agency that led the man into this dangerous situation. They also want stronger rules to stop these scams from happening again.

The Israeli military hasn’t shared details about the shooting yet, but they have said they will cooperate with any investigations into the case.

This incident brings attention to the growing problem of job scams, where dishonest agencies fool people into thinking they’ve found work abroad. As these scams become more common, governments need to take action to protect people looking for jobs in other countries.

The family hopes that their tragedy will help others avoid similar scams and lead to stronger protections for workers trying to find opportunities overseas. They are determined to get justice for their loved one and find out what really happened.
