Flash: An Israeli investigation claims that Netanyahu's office helped orchestrate the arrest of three Arab political activists on election day to fuel claims that Arabs are stealing the election.
Netanyahu's Chief of Staff referred the police to an intelligence agent who was a former employee of the Prime Minister's Office, leading to raids and arrests based on claims that later turned out to be unfounded. Netanyahu increased the news about the arrests throughout election day.
The N12 report also stated that Shin Bet chief David Zini requested to listen to five Arab lawmakers due to suspicion of foreign interference in the elections, but the Attorney General's Office blocked the request.
Investigators are now looking into whether intelligence was deliberately planted to support the arrests.
