Israeli police believe that investigation materials indicate the involvement of Member of Knesset Yitzhak Kroizer from the Otzma Yehudit party in an incident that occurred approximately a week and a half ago at Jericho Mount. During the incident, four police officers were injured while pursuing masked Jewish individuals. Kroizer is expected to be questioned under caution, with authorities planning to request approval from the Attorney General for this step.
Initial suspects in the incident, which left four officers injured, including one with a broken nose, were questioned earlier on Sunday. Kroizer has consistently denied any involvement and has filed a complaint with the Police Investigations Department (PID) regarding the matter.
In a statement on his official X account, Kroizer stated, "PID and the Attorney General, what are you afraid of? I arrived at the PID today to file a complaint about the violence used against me by police officers during a memorial for my four fallen IDF comrades from the War of Independence. After nearly four hours of waiting, I discovered that no one would accept my complaint. I will not allow anyone to cover up the incident, silence the affair, or prevent the truth from being revealed. I demand that my complaint be accepted and investigated immediately, that the truth come to light, and that all those responsible be held accountable. The law is not a recommendation, certainly not for those entrusted with its enforcement."
