In the Netanyahu trial, attorney Amit Hadad confronted retired Superintendent Alon Tzarfati, former legal advisor of the National Fraud Investigation Unit (YAHAL), today (Tuesday) with the question of whether the police documented the identity of journalist Ben Caspit's journalistic sources. Tzarfati initially claimed he did not recall a list being made, but after being shown previous testimony from former investigation team head Mumi Mashulam, he admitted: "I remember there was a memorandum. I don't remember what was in it. I ask to see the documents." The confrontation concerns meetings Caspit held with police investigators, during which he provided information about the suspicion that Netanyahu received gifts from Arnon Milchan and James Packer, the affair investigated as Case 1000. Hadad seeks to clarify whether Caspit also revealed the identity of the sources he relied on as a journalist. Judge Rivka Friedman-Feldman rejected the prosecution's objection and allowed Hadad to continue this line of inquiry. The article presents the legal drama, focusing on Tzarfati's admission after evasion.
