Bardugo accuses state attorney of undermining democracy by restricting Netanyahu aide's contact

Primary source Internal intake · 2 reviewed intake signals · Desk window 12:02

TL;DR

Commentator Yaakov Bardugo sharply criticized State Attorney Amit Aisman and Attorney General Gali Baharav-Miara, alleging that the prosecution's demand to prevent Jonathan Urich, an aide to Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, from contacting him constitutes a 'targeted thwarting' operation and an attempt to undermine the foundations of democracy.

01 · THE DISPATCH

Commentator Yaakov Bardugo leveled a blistering attack on State Attorney Amit Aisman and Attorney General Gali Baharav-Miara over what he described as a politically motivated restriction on Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu. According to Bardugo, the prosecution demanded that Jonathan Urich, an advisor to Netanyahu, be barred from contacting the prime minister. Bardugo argued that since Netanyahu is not a suspect nor has he given testimony in the case, the move is a 'targeted thwarting' by Aisman, whom he called 'one of the most political and dangerous people,' together with Baharav-Miara and the prosecution team. Bardugo said the action undermines democracy and directly harms the Netanyahu campaign, the right, and the prime minister.
