Rafi Malka is a former Shin Bet officer who served as head of the Operations Division, head of Administration Division, and head of Protection in Europe.[1]
Bus 300 Affair
His retirement in the mid-1980s was prompted by the 1984 Bus 300 Affair.[2] Along with Reuven Hazak and Peleg Radai, he was suspended by Shin Bet chief Avraham Shalom in the recriminations which followed the case.[3] The 1986 Karp Commission ruled that Malka, Hazak and Radia told the truth in their allegations against Shalom.[4]
The Shin Bet officer who supervised the Bus 300 killings, codenamed 'Yod' in the Israeli media, was subsequently promoted to Malka's old position.[5] This was presumably Ehud Yatom.
He later served on the internal Shin Bet Commission appointed to investigate the assassination of Yitzhak Rabin.[1]
