Justice Minister Yariv Levin spoke at the plenary session during a question discussion and attacked the attorney general.
"This reality of selective enforcement is outrageous," Levin said from the Knesset podium. "I'd say it's perfectly fine if the policy is that roads can be blocked, then that's all good. Unfortunately, however, this is a new policy designed for demonstrations by one side. I don't remember a single word said by the attorney general on this issue since the riots, harassment and threats against public figures began."
Levin added: "I would say that maybe this too is a new policy of the attorney general – silence and non-intervention – had it not been for the fact that after I presented the reform, the attorney general rushed to Haifa to participate in the conference and attacked my proposal with harsh words."
"Demonstrations in front of the homes of public figures - this is something that I have believed throughout the years should be allowed and should not be prevented." Justice Minister Yariv Levin said so, but added: "There are also rules of 300 meters distance, etc., which must be strictly observed and at appropriate hours, and there are also neighbors who do not have to suffer from the matter pic.twitter.com/qOdZtcGmWc."

The minister added: "There are things that she considers important, namely to thwart the judicial reform, and there are things that are not important, namely to ensure public order and the safety and well-being of elected officials on a certain side of the political map."
