A judge questioned the prosecution's opposition to hearing testimony from former Attorney General Avichai Mandelblit about alleged illegal investigative actions. The prosecution argued against it, fearing it would set a precedent for future cases. Mandelblit's testimony, if allowed, would cover actions taken after he granted approvals, expanding on the defense's current questioning scope.
