Nir Hefetz, former spokesman for Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, was interviewed on 103FM and addressed the dramatic testimony of former Attorney General Avichai Mandelblit. In the interview, Hefetz sharply criticized the conduct of the prosecution and police in the investigations conducted against him. He described threats from investigators, including threats to dismantle his family and harm his son's military enlistment. Hefetz claimed that personal and intimate information obtained through illegal means was used against him and an innocent third party. He called for opening an investigation against Yehudit Tirosh, the Deputy State Attorney, for approving the investigative "sting operation." However, Hefetz clarified that he cannot determine whether there were illegal investigative actions, as he is a state witness and not objective. He expressed confidence in the judges in Netanyahu's trial but harshly criticized the prosecution's conduct.
