Justice minister denies breaking gag order, says he repeated published details

The justice minister is now denying breaking a gag order during his Knesset speech earlier while addressing police interrogation tactics towards a witness in the Netanyahu cases.

Amir Ohana’s office says “there is no truth” to reports he defied restrictions.

“The minister only repeated matters that were already publicized, and did not say anything new because he cannot give new details from investigative material he does not hold.”
