Associates of Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu are suspected of involvement in the election-day arrests of Ra'am activists, based on disputed intelligence. The intelligence, provided by a former Prime Minister's Office employee, was entered into police systems before the election, leading to arrests that were later found to be unfounded. Preliminary examinations are underway by the Attorney General's office and police, while the Shin Bet claims it has long been aware of election manipulation in Arab communities.
