Acting police commissioner gives officers support amid public criticism

Motti Cohen, the acting Israel Police commissioner, visits officers at the headquarters of the Lahav 433 anti-corruption to show support amid a rash of criticism of law enforcement from Netanyahu and his allies.

“We must loyally fulfill our public task of uncovering public crime and corruption at all levels, to investigate thoroughly every incidence of corruption and arrive at the truth in every investigation without allowing slander or accusations of any kind to have any influence on our integrity and professionalism,” says Cohen.

Cohen has been the interim commissioner for about a year, and has refrained from speaking out on the Netanyahu investigations.
