Kreuzer demands investigation against head of Investigations and Intelligence Division: "Attempt to harm me politically"
MK Yitzhak Kreuzer (Otzma Yehudit) has escalated his confrontation with the police, turning to the Commissioner with a demand to investigate suspected selective leaks from his investigation file, while also calling for an examination of the involvement of the head of the Investigations and Intelligence Division, Commissioner Boaz Blet, whom he claims is acting against him for political motives. Kreuzer filed a complaint with the Police Internal Investigations Department alleging that officers used unreasonable force against him during an incident in Mitzpe Yericho.
MK Yitzhak Kreuzer (Otzma Yehudit) is escalating his confrontation with the police: after filing a complaint with the Police Internal Investigations Department (Mahash) alleging that officers used unreasonable force against him during an incident in Mitzpe Yericho, Kreuzer turned to Commissioner Chief Superintendent Danny Levy demanding an investigation into suspected selective leaks from the investigation file. In his letter, Kreuzer claims that details were selectively leaked to the media to present a distorted version and harm his reputation. He raises suspicion of the involvement of the head of the Investigations and Intelligence Division, Commissioner Boaz Blet, in the leaks, and demands to clarify the circumstances of the information transfer. The incident occurred on the eve of the memorial for four IDF fallen soldiers; Kreuzer claims he arrived at the scene, identified himself as an MK, and tried to calm things down, but the officers used unreasonable force. The police confirmed that an investigation is underway following a claim that an officer was attacked and his nose was broken. Kreuzer also claims he was prevented from filing a complaint with Mahash for four hours, according to an instruction from the Attorney General. He emphasizes that his claims are not directed at all police officers.
