Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s acting chief of staff passed intelligence against activists from the Arab Ra’am party directly to the Israeli police commissioner’s office, i24NEWS journalist Avishai Grinzaig reported, confirming an earlier report by Guy Peleg. Police arrested suspects with envelopes containing 10,000 shekels and repeatedly briefed reporters on election day about suspected bribery without disclosing that the complaint originated in the Prime Minister’s Office, though police now admit there is currently no case against the suspects.
