Police in the Qatargate investigation are concerned about possible obstruction of justice as attorney Amit Hadad, who represents one of the central suspects, is also Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's lawyer. The police fear that Hadad's dual role could lead to obstruction of justice in the case. Hadad objected to these concerns and threatened to file a complaint against the police. The investigation focuses on alleged Qatari payments to Netanyahu's close circle between May 2022 and October 2024.
