As criticism of the police intensifies: Commissioner Danny Levy is staying in Morocco

Police Commissioner Danny Levy is on a visit to Morocco amid sharp criticism of the police's handling of the election bribery suspicions in the Arab sector. Meanwhile, Likud demands an investigation into 700 reports of violations, and the chairman of the Central Elections Committee has established a joint investigation team.

Amid sharp criticism of the police's handling of the election bribery affair in the Arab sector, Police Commissioner Rav-Nitzav Danny Levy is on a visit to Morocco. The stay occurs against the backdrop of the investigation into the election bribery affair in the Negev, in which seven suspects were arrested on suspicion of attempting to influence voters through the distribution of money. Some of the suspects have been released from custody, but the police have clarified that the investigation is not yet over. A senior government official harshly criticized the police's conduct, claiming that police intelligence in the Arab sector is very weak, or that the police sought to silence complaints. Meanwhile, the Likud party appealed to the Attorney General demanding an investigation into approximately 700 reports of suspected election law violations. The chairman of the Central Elections Committee, Judge Noam Solberg, announced the establishment of a joint investigation team comprising the Shin Bet, the police, and the prosecution.
