What stops the cops
“Gideon Sa’ar proposes new bill to strike problematic evidence” (June 28) reveals that the police collect problematic
evidence. The police are under the jurisdiction of the Ministry of Public Security. A statement of this ministry’s vision
includes “bringing about a significant improvement in... the
sense of security” of the citizens of Israel.
We cannot feel a sense of security, if the police collect problematic evidence. Clearly, the Ministry of Public Security
must strive to change the mindset of the police from one that countenances collecting problematic evidence, to one of endeavoring to find the truth.
