From the end of March 2023 to November 2024, no fewer than 152 direct phone calls were traced from the personal phone of MK Zvi Sukkot to the personal phone of Deputy Chief Avishai Mualem.
According to a report today (Friday) by Avishai Greenzig, the legal commentator for the i24 channel, of the calls, there were 92 calls and missed calls that took place via WhatsApp, and another 60 calls and attempted regular phone calls.
The investigation material indicates that the conversations between the Knesset member and the commander of the central unit in Judea and Samaria began after Sukkot entered the Knesset.
Documentation obtained by Greenzig indicates that Minister Ben-Gvir's office did not like this direct channel between the Knesset member and the commander of the Naval Forces.
MK Sukkot's response: "As the chairman of the Knesset's Committee on Judea and Samaria, which deals extensively with police activity in the region, it is natural for me to be in contact with the regional police commander as well as with other relevant officials in all areas."
