The State Prosecutor's Office informed MK Adi Azouz that a request to open an investigation against MK Moshe Gafni has been forwarded to the relevant authorities in the Israel Police. The move follows Gafni's public call to stop cooperating with police.
The State Prosecutor's Office has initiated a preliminary inquiry into MK Moshe Gafni (United Torah Judaism) following his public call to cease cooperation with police. The development came in response to a request by MK Adi Azouz (Yesh Atid), who formally petitioned the prosecution to examine whether Gafni's remarks crossed a legal line. The inquiry has been forwarded to operational units within the Israel Police. The Zioneer has no prior reporting on this specific thread; the event is a single-source report via Channel 12's N12 chat feed, posted Sunday at 17:10 Jerusalem. It remains to be seen whether the inquiry will escalate to a full criminal investigation or remain at the preliminary stage.
