An Israeli tech firm that sells security products in the United States claimed to cut ties with its chairman, former Israeli Prime Minister Ehud Barak, following revelations of his close ties to deceased multimillionaire sex offender Jeffrey Epstein—although records indicate Barak may still have a stake in the company.

The company in question is Carbyne Ltd., an Israeli tech vendor that offers services to governments in the United States, Mexico, Brazil, Ukraine, and the Philippines. Carbyne sells software to police departments and other government agencies that allows them to access callers’ smartphones during emergencies.
