After he attacked policemen:

The ombudsman Shit approved today (Tuesday) to investigate MK Ofer Kasif from the joint list.

As you may recall, last May the Knesset member was recorded attacking policemen in the south of Mount Hebron.

This incident happened a day after MK Ahmed Tibi was recorded preventing the police from detaining a suspect.

Kasif said: "Today we have come to support the indigenous residents of Masafar Yatta, who are facing the demolition of their homes and their eviction from their land in light of the High Court ruling that denies and negates international law.

"The policemen violated my immunity repeatedly during the silent procession and prevented me from my free movement. One of the policemen made a threat when he told his friend, 'If he (Kasif - MM) continues - I will not only arrest him, but shoot him.'

That policeman refused to give me his name and even accused me of threatening to run him over." According to Kasif, "again the police are lying to cover up their violence, omissions and crimes."
