Yushvaev had often been arrested, but never convicted.
Shocking footage that’s going viral online shows a man being shot dead at a gas station in Israel’s Caesarea.
The man has been identified as Yanis Yushvaev, described in local media as the boss of Israel’s Caucasian Mafia.
The Times of Israel reported:
“Yushvaev, 40, a resident of the central town of Or Akiva, was well known to police and had been repeatedly arrested in recent years on suspicion of violent crimes.
Footage of the shooting showed a man wearing a hoodie and cap approaching a restaurant at the Caesarea Junction gas station. The man met Yushvaev and two other men at the door as they walked out, and passed them by, only to suddenly spin around, draw a handgun, and shoot Yushvaev from behind at point-blank range. He then fled the scene.”
