MK Sharren Haskel (Likud) refered to blocking of the legislation that would grant the police the authority to conduct a strip search without reasonable suspicion.
"I sent a clear message this week at a meeting of the Likud faction and last night in the Knesset Constitution Committee that it would be unthinkable to allow the police to strip people in the State of Israel without reasonable suspicion ... In recent years the police have been trying to expand their power and to get more and more powers that may violate the rights of the individual, , And a police state, a proposal that would violate civil liberties. "
