Former Attorney General Avichai Mandelblit stated during his cross-examination in the Netanyahu trial that he does not know who drafted the warning presented to Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu during his interrogation. Netanyahu's lawyer, Amit Haddad, questioned Mandelblit about the author of the warning. Mandelblit responded that he did not remember and clarified that he himself did not draft it. Haddad asserted that all investigators questioned on the matter testified that they did not draft the warning. Mandelblit suggested that the accompanying prosecution team might have drafted it, but reiterated that he was unaware of who formulated the warning's text. He described this possibility as a logical assumption. Earlier, Mandelblit explained that the interrogation approvals he granted were limited to specific subjects, stating that while some individuals felt overly restricted, this was his intention. He added that the accompanying prosecution team was responsible for supervising the investigators and ensuring they adhered to the approved interrogation topics.
