Former Religious Zionism MK Zvi Sukkot arrives for interrogation at the Department of Internal Police Investigations (DIPI) headquarters this morning, as part of an ongoing probe into a West Bank cop accused of faking investigations into settler violence, in a case with ties to then-national security minister Itamar Ben Gvir.
“I have nothing to hide, I abide by the law,” says the far-right former lawmaker to reporters as he enters the building.
Earlier this week, close Ben Gvir associate Chanamel Dorfman was questioned under caution on suspicion he attempted to tamper with police investigations into Jewish settler violence, but he has since been since released with no restrictive conditions.
The DIPI also summoned the case’s main suspect, Commander Avishai Muallem, for questioning, as well as West Bank district police commander Moshe Pinchi to give open testimony.
