Prime Minister Netanyahu this afternoon condemned the recent criticism of Israel Security Agency Director Yoram Cohen surrounding allegations of torture used against the suspects in the Duma arson. Three members of a family, including a baby, were killed in an arson attack in July, which has since been under investigation.

“ISA Director Yoram Cohen and his personnel are doing important and excellent work for the people of Israel and for the security of Israel. I find the attacks on them to be unacceptable,” the Prime Minister said.
