They accused police of dedicating large forces to the Japnika branch incidents while neglecting hundreds of murders in Arab communities, according to N12.
Makom Lekulanu activists protested Tuesday morning at a Haifa Japnika branch, holding photos of Arab murder victims and accusing police of diverting resources to the Japnika investigation while neglecting hundreds of murders in Arab society. The protest occurred amid the ongoing police investigation into a suspected arson at the same branch on July 15, which damaged the door. The suspect in that arson, Sharon Knovelich, was released to house arrest on July 20. Makom Lekulanu, which presented a plan to combat crime in Arab society on July 13, has been a vocal critic of what it calls institutional neglect of violence in Arab communities.
