The Jewish Power party announced on Sunday that its Director-General, Itiel Neiman, has been summoned for investigation. The party strongly criticized the Attorney General, stating, "The political persecution by the Attorney General against the Jewish Power party crosses every red line today." The party linked Neiman's summons to the investigation of Member of Knesset Yitzhak Kroizer. According to the party, Kroizer was prevented from filing a complaint with the Police Internal Investigations Department for over a week after attending a memorial service for a fallen childhood friend, suffering from a broken rib.
The party alleged that the law enforcement system is now "targeting the management level of the party" in an attempt to harm it. Jewish Power also accused law enforcement of selective enforcement, claiming that cases involving left-wing individuals and Knesset members Gilead Kariv and Naama Lazimi are being delayed, while the system acts swiftly in matters concerning party members.
The party's statement came with a photo credited to the Jewish Power spokesperson.
