Ben Gvir Accuses Police Chief of Being Controlled by Attorney General
Israel's National Security Minister Itamar Ben-Gvir has launched a sharp attack on the Police Commissioner, stating that the core dispute between them is not about budget, but about political appointments during an election period. Ben-Gvir claims the Police Commissioner is being controlled by the Attorney General, who is demanding the immediate promotion of her associate, Tamar Liberty, formerly the chief of staff to former Police Commissioner Roni Alsheich.
"I will not allow the criminal Attorney General to put her fingers in the Israel Police and dictate appointments of associates against proper administration," Ben-Gvir declared. He asserted that the Attorney General is seeking to advance her close confidante, Liberty, despite the timing of the upcoming elections.
