Ra'am party chairman Mansour Abbas has responded for the first time to reports that Shin Bet head David Zini requested to investigate him. Abbas stated that "the attempt to tarnish the Arab public is unacceptable." He asserted that he and all Ra'am members "are not afraid of any investigation and are prepared to appear before all law enforcement authorities, in accordance with the directives of the Attorney General and the justice system, which have proven time and again that they are subject to the law and not to other political factors."
Abbas further demanded that state authorities "respect the decision of the voters and act with statehood and responsibility towards all citizens and uphold the law and the order of government." The reports suggest the Shin Bet chief sought to investigate Abbas, though the specific reasons were not detailed in the article.
