Member of Knesset Moshe Saada has sharply criticized former Attorney General Avichai Mandelblit following Mandelblit's testimony in the trial of Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu. Mandelblit stated during his testimony that he chose not to open an investigation by the Police Investigations Department (PID) to avoid disrupting Netanyahu's trial. Saada alleged that this decision was politically motivated and that Mandelblit deliberately ignored alleged criminal offenses committed during the investigations.
In a statement on social media platform X, Saada claimed that Mandelblit admitted in his testimony that the police and prosecution acted unlawfully. "From the beginning of his testimony, Mandelblit admits that the police and prosecution acted unlawfully, and that he acted out of political motives and ignored the criminal offenses he knew were committed in the Netanyahu cases," Saada wrote.
Saada further asserted that Mandelblit's testimony validates his own previous claims made during his testimony in the Netanyahu trial several months prior. He stated that the current developments confirm his assertions about the conduct of investigators and prosecutors. "The truth is beginning to be revealed exactly as I claimed would happen when I testified in the trial a few months ago, and we will not rest until the criminals in the service of the law are held accountable!" Saada added.
