Attorney-General Avichai Mandelblit said Knesset chairpeople cannot stop Deputy Attorney-General Dina Zilber from speaking in their committees, Kaan, an Israeli news source, reported on Monday.
With uncharacteristic terseness, Mandelblit said on Wednesday that Shaked exceeded her authority and has no control over Zilber’s public appearances. Rather, Mandelblit said that he, and he alone, decides who will represent the attorney-general’s office in government forums.
