Attorney Guy Bassi stated on Monday that former Attorney General Avichai Mandelblit should have been arrested immediately, asserting that Mandelblit admitted to serious criminal actions during his testimony. Bassi claimed that Mandelblit also admitted to not reading crucial documents. "If we were in a proper country, yesterday police officers would have arrived at the witness stand and arrested Mandelblit along with Yehudit Tirosh," Bassi declared on Galei Israel radio.
Bassi further alleged that Mandelblit and Tirosh concealed information from the court for four years regarding Mandelblit's knowledge of a scheme orchestrated by state witness Nir Hefetz. He noted that prosecutor Amit Haddad presented a document showing that both Mandelblit and Tirosh were aware of the plan in real-time. Bassi argued that individuals aware of such "mafia-like schemes" within the State Prosecution should be investigated.
According to Bassi, the pursuit of these schemes was prioritized over investigating guilt, with the ultimate goal of ousting the prime minister. Professor Yuval Albashan also commented on the ongoing Netanyahu trial.
