The head of the Knessets Internal Affairs Committee, MK David Amsalem, referred to the State Attorney's decision to close the case against Gil Shefer, stating that "police claimed a year ago that there was enough evidence to indict Shefer and his name was disgraced time after time. Today it became clear that it was all nothing.

He added that "this is the reason I wish to fix the injustice and prevent police from publicizing its recommendations against innocent people before they have been verified."
