National Security Minister Itamar Ben-Gvir sharply criticized Police Commissioner Danny Levi and head of Investigations Division Brigadier General Belet during a meeting about the investigation of the former military prosecutor. "I am not interfering with the investigation, but on the question of who supervises and accompanies the investigation, you cannot ignore the government. Israel cannot be a banana republic. Hand over the materials," he said. This came after it was reported earlier today to ynet that the Commissioner for Judicial Complaints, retired Judge Asher Kola who was appointed by Yariv Levin to oversee the investigation, initially approached Belet directly requesting investigative materials. Belet urgently reported this request to the Police Commissioner who issued a notice that no one would receive the materials until the Supreme Court rules on the matter.
