Following suspicions of voter bribery in the Negev, in which three residents of Segev Shalom and Ar'ara were arrested, it was decided to transfer the case to Lahav 433 in light of the severity of the suspicions. Police are examining indications from the investigation suggesting a broader affair. In parallel, the police intelligence division has been deployed to assess the scope of the affair, following suspicions that it involves an organized and extensive infrastructure designed to influence election results.
