Justice minister urges boycott of Shin Bet chief if High Court nullifies his firing

Justice Minister Yariv Levin has called on the government to boycott Shin Bet chief Ronen Bar if the High Court of Justice nullifies his firing. Levin's comments come ahead of the court hearing petitions against Bar's dismissal. Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu cited lack of trust as the reason for firing Bar, but critics claim it is a conflict of interest due to the Shin Bet's investigation into alleged unlawful ties between Netanyahu's aides and Qatari officials. Levin has also threatened to dismiss Attorney General Gali Baharav-Miara.
