Getting your police car, 'Palestinian' style

Aaron Lerner translates an article from Sunday's Hebrew Maariv, which explains how a senior 'Palestinian' police officer got his 'police car': A 2008 Mitsubishi Pajero like the one pictured at left (Hat Tip: Nathan in Teaneck, New Jersey).
Maariv correspondents Avi Ashkenazi and Yuval Goren reported in today's edition that Israeli Border Police forces with the assistance of vehicle tracking from Ituran, detained a senior police officer in the PA, a relative of Marwan Barghouti, as he was driving his family to a wedding in an Israeli 2008 Mitsubishi Pajero that had been stolen a week earlier in Caesarea.

The PA police officer had been on the wanted list of the ISS (Shabak) for a long time.

"The jeep that was stolen in Caesarea was transferred to Ramallah and upgraded and turned into a Palestinian police car," said the representative from Ituran. "They put on PA Police license plates, installed a communications system, a siren and blue [police] lights."
Just like in your town, right?
