Blue and White MK calls for investigation of justice minister’s conduct

Blue and White MK Yoav Seglovich, a former head of police’s Lahav 433 anti-corruption unit, files a formal request with Knesset Speaker Yuli Edelstein to set up a temporary ethics committee to assess Justice Minister Amir Ohana’s behavior.

“This is the only way possible to discuss this serious case,” Seglovich writes to Edelstein. “The behavior of elected officials, especially at a time when Knesset committees are largely inactive, requires all of us at least to pay close attention to our own behavior, and certainly to the law.”
