"This sharp conflict of interest cries out to the sky and could result in a criminal offense of breach of trust. It would certainly have been decided that it was a matter for a elected official, not a public service lawyer. Of course, it is impossible to accept a situation that Attorney Yanun will decide on these questions even if he was not signed. The conflict of interest arrangement. It is also impossible to accept the artificial separation, which is alleged to deal only with "procedural" and non-substantive matters, just as a judge cannot decide to disqualify himself from dealing with the case, and "just" set the rules and discuss the preliminary claims, "the minister wrote.

Movement for Quality Government: "Threatening Letter, Ohana Acting as a Mob"

Recall yesterday that it was revealed that the spouse of Attorney Eyal Yanon, Adv. Amit Merari - a senior member of the US Attorney's Office who worked under the State Attorney, was a partner in a team that drafted the indictments against the Prime Minister and therefore he is in conflict of interest. The Knesset Speaker's days stated that the issue of the Prime Minister's immunity could be debated, even though the Knesset was dispersed. However, the final decision will be by Knesset Speaker Yuli Edelstein.

The Movement for Quality Government responded to a letter sent by Minister Ohana, which he described as "a threatening letter": "The Minister of Justice acts like a mobster. Shame. After attacking the previous police commissioner, the prosecutor's office, the attorney general - now is the turn of another gatekeeper . We are strengthening the hand of Knesset Attorney General Il Yinon and urge him not to shy away from Minister Ohana's nauseating bullying and continue to represent the rule of law proudly. "
