Yair Netanyahu has filed a police complaint against the cop charged with leading the criminal investigations into his father, Hebrew media reports.

The complaint was filed last week. Police are said to still be looking into the matter and have not decided if they will open an investigation.

According to the younger Netanyahu’s complaint against Commander Manny Yitzhaki, police tailed the prime minister when he was not yet a suspect in the so-called Case 1000, which the complainant charges is illegal.

Netanyahu claims that the information gathered by the police who surveilled the premier was used to reach Hadas Klein, an assistant to Israeli Hollywood producer Arnon Milchan — a key player in Case 1000.
