Maya Golan Slams Move to Transfer Her Case to the State Attorney’s Office

Minister Maya Golan sharply attacked the police announcement about her case and the transfer of the file in which she is suspected to the State Attorney’s Office, claiming it was a political move aimed at people on the right. According to her, her refusal to appear for questioning stemmed from the fact that the investigating body was “biased” and operating as “mafia messengers.” Golan stressed that she would not be deterred by the process and declared, “In the name of God, we will continue to act and succeed.”

Minister Maya Golan responded today, Wednesday, with harsh criticism to the police statement published about her, and to the transfer of the case in which she is suspected to the State Attorney’s Office, accusing law enforcement authorities of carrying out political persecution against her. Golan said the timing of the move was not coincidental and that it was taking place against the backdrop of the political system and the upcoming elections.

In Minister Golan’s statement, she wrote: “Pretend to be surprised: on the eve of elections, and those who persecute people on the right are going into a frenzy to stitch me up as well. This is political persecution on steroids. I did not show up for questioning because the investigating and persecuting body was biased and behaved like mafia messengers.”

The minister continued her harsh attack on law enforcement officials and added: “This will no longer work for you. The public no longer buys the lies and blood libels! In the name of God, we will continue to act and succeed, many are the plans in a person’s heart, but the counsel of God will stand!”

The response comes hours after the police announcement sparked political uproar and led to mutual accusations between coalition figures and law enforcement officials. While the police present their actions as part of a professional and substantive process, Golan says it is a politically motivated move intended to harm her and the right-wing camp.
