The High Court of Justice should temporarily freeze a law separating the Justice Ministry’s Police Investigation Department from the State Attorney’s Office, Attorney-General Gali Baharav-Miara argued on Monday, warning that it would create a “political prosecution unit” capable of intimidating police officers, investigators, prosecutors and journalists.
