Chairman Yair Lapid of the Yesh Atid party has responded to Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu's remarks against Police Commissioner Roni Alsheikh, writing on Twitter, "Netanyahu's attack on the commissioner before the publication of the recommendations [in corruption investigations surrounding him] is a desperate act by someone who is being investigated, who decided to take advantage of his high status in order to threaten the rule of law and to censure the police who protect us all."
