Minister for Social Equality and the Advancement of the Status of Women, Mai Golan, is expected to be questioned by the Lahav 433 police unit this week. The investigation concerns suspicions of offenses related to integrity, following her refusal to appear for questioning over the past year.
In June, the National Fraud Investigations Unit (YAH'A) within Lahav 433 announced it had concluded its investigation into Golan and several public officials close to her. The police found sufficient evidence against the minister, including obstruction of justice and misleading an officer.
The investigation, which began covertly several months prior and received approval from the Attorney General, transitioned to an open inquiry in September 2025. Suspicions include bribery, fraud, breach of trust, obtaining property by deception under aggravated circumstances, forgery with intent to gain, obstruction of legal proceedings, and hindering a police officer in the line of duty. Dozens of suspects and witnesses were questioned during the investigation.
