Opposition Democrats leader Yair Golan responded Monday evening to comments by a police spokesperson by calling on Police Commissioner Danny Levi to summon Chief Superintendent Doron for a hearing, saying 'Ben-Gvir's police have lost restraint.' Golan added that in the next government his party will take over the Public Security Ministry and restore order.
Yair Golan, chair of the opposition Democrats party and a reserve major general, issued a statement Monday evening reacting to remarks by a police spokesperson. Golan called on Police Commissioner Danny Levi to summon Chief Superintendent Doron (full name not specified in the source) for a hearing, accusing the police under Minister Itamar Ben-Gvir of having 'lost restraint.' He said his party will take over the Public Security Ministry after the next election and 'return it to the right track.' The statement follows a series of political exchanges between Golan and the police, including a prior bulletin in which the police spokesperson said he was being attacked by the Democrats party over his work.
The source does not detail which remarks by the spokesperson triggered Golan's response, nor the specific context of the alleged loss of restraint. The claim is based on Golan's own statement, reported by a single source.
