MK Ophir Pines-Paz (Labor-Meimad) on Sunday called on Internal Security Minister Avi Dichter to form a governmental commission of inquiry into the riots that took place in the Druze town of Peki'in last week.
A committee of parliamentary inquiry must be put in place, said Pines-Paz, as "no system can efficiently investigate itself."
On Saturday, some five days after the riots, the police informed the Jewish residents that the situation in Peki'in had returned to normal, and gave them the go-ahead to return to their homes.
The police further removed the roadblocks that had been set up at the town's entrances and said that a communal police station would be established in order to help rebuild damaged relations between the town's Jewish and Druze residents.
The decision to remove the roadblocks came after a security evaluation held by Deputy Police Commissioner Shahar Ayalon, Major-General Shimon Koren, commander of the police's Northern District, and Brigadier-General Nir Mariash, commander of the Galilee District.
The three received an intelligence and contingency briefing suggesting the residents wish to resume Peki'in's normal routine.
