Minister for Social Equality and Advancement of the Status of Women, May Golan, is expected to be questioned by the end of this week. Agreements have been reached between the police and her lawyer, Amit Haddad, for her to present herself for investigation. Golan and other individuals involved in the case are suspected of bribery, fraud, and breach of trust.

A statement from Golan's office indicated that she had instructed her lawyers about a month ago to arrange her appearance for questioning to refute the allegations against her. "I am confident in the righteousness of my path and determined to refute the fabrications in this persecution campaign against me. The truth will come to light," the minister stated.

The investigation is being conducted by the National Fraud Investigations Unit within Lahav 433. In addition to suspicions of bribery, fraud, and breach of trust, the case also examines allegations of obtaining something by fraud under aggravated circumstances, forgery with intent to obtain, obstruction of justice, and hindering a police officer in the performance of their duty. The specific offenses attributed to each individual involved have not been detailed.
