Lieutenant Colonel Moti Schiff, deputy head of the Investigations and Intelligence Division of the police, said in closed-door talks that Legal Advisor to the Government Gali Baharav Mayara should be called to testify in the case of the former Chief Military Prosecutor.
This, he said, is because she "was 'cheated' on the case.".
According to a report this evening (Monday) on 'Kan News', Attorney General Schiff addressed the suspicion that the government's legal counsel was "misled" by former IDF Chief of Staff Yifat Tomer Yerushalmi and her people regarding the fake investigation into the leak of the video from the 'Yemen Field' base.

The background to this is Commissioner Danny Levy's decision to delay the completion of the investigation and his demand to transfer the case for review by the legal advisor to the Ministry of Justice, Yael Kotik.
The Israel Police said in response to the publication: "This is gossip, because the deputy head of the AHM was not part of the investigation team and was not exposed to the investigation materials. Also, he did not participate in any discussion on the subject. Therefore, the attribution of the information seems puzzling and it is interesting what interest the news serves.".
