Israeli Arab MP who visited Syria to face probe
|
JERUSALEM - Three Israeli Arab lawmakers who went to Syria could face legal action on charges of visiting an enemy state without the governments authorisation, officials said on Sunday. This comes after Israeli Attorney General Menachem Mazuz instructed police to launch a criminal probe against MPs Azmi Bishara, Jamal Zahalka and Taha Wasal who had held talks with Syrian leaders, including President Bashar Al Assad, in Damascus.
Earlier, Interior Ministry Ronni Bar-On told a weekly government meeting Sunday he had asked Mazuz to investigate the three MPs. All the necessary steps should be taken in order to bring them to justice and stop this phenomenon, a senior interior ministry official quoted Bar-On as telling the cabinet.
The Israeli Arab MPs travelled to Syria this weekend without obtaining authorisation from the interior ministry as is required for all visits to countries considered by Israel as enemies.
