MKs file bill to enable police probes against AG amid growing campaign to oust her

Coalition lawmakers have introduced a bill that would allow criminal investigations against the attorney general and state attorney, amid a campaign to remove Attorney General Gali Baharav-Miara. The proposed legislation would require the approval of the justice minister for police investigations and would grant the appointed prosecutor the same powers as the attorney general and state attorney. The bill aims to address shortcomings in the existing law and create a mechanism similar to investigations into police misconduct. The move comes as 13 ministers have signed a letter demanding Baharav-Miara's dismissal.
