Commentator Avi Moskov published the identity of the police officer suspended after an incident during a Haredi protest in Bnei Brak, according to a social media post.
The suspension was confirmed earlier Wednesday evening by Police Commissioner Danny Levi, who said the officer who kicked a Haredi protester had been removed from operational duty. Levi stated that commanders and other officers who violated protocol during the protest would also be suspended.
Moskov had earlier described the police conduct at the protest as a 'disgrace' to the commissioner, accusing officers of using excessive force. The protest itself was against the arrest of a yeshiva student over IDF service evasion.
