A psychologist from northern Israel was accused on Tuesday of committing sexual offenses, according to the N12 news site.
The well-known psychologist was accused of committing numerous sexual offenses over a period of years, including targeting minors on the autism spectrum.
The psychologist was expected to be taken in by police for further questioning, but the move was canceled at the last moment due to the need for extra police to monitor Jerusalem's flag march.
He had been previously arrested for similar offenses three years ago but the case was closed and the Health Ministry failed to suspend his license.
"Today he was required to be interrogated and they told him not to come. If it was a serious complaint, [the police] would immediately come and tell him to come to us," said Tami Ullman, the accused psychologist's lawyer. "This is the attitude of the police because they know there is nothing in this case."
Police opened an investigation and will hand over relevant information to the State Attorney's Office.
