The Deputy Minister for Internal Security, Gadi Yevarkan, told Galei Tzahal this morning that he believes a commission of inquiry should be established to investigate the tragedy that occurred in Meron on Lag b'Omer.
"There is no other option," Yevarkan said. "An independent body, established by the government, has to deal with the issues involved in a systematic way, not just focusing on individual details. The notion that the Police Investigatory Department should be investigating the way the police itself behaved at the scene is absurd."
