Deputy said suspected of trying to paper over probe into top IDF lawyer over Sde Teiman leak

Police are intensifying their investigation into Brigadier General Gal Asael, deputy to former military advocate general Yifat Tomer-Yerushalmi, over allegations of covering up her involvement in the leak of surveillance footage from the Sde Teiman detention facility. Asael, who led an unsuccessful internal probe before police intervention, is suspected of misleading a senior aide to the attorney general by fabricating reports of investigative actions that were never conducted. Sources emphasize that Attorney General Gali Baharav-Miara is not implicated in the case, and the alleged deception appears confined to the military advocate general's office. The leaked footage, which reportedly shows severe abuse of a Palestinian detainee by troops, has already led to several indictments, and the investigation into the leak is expected to conclude soon.
