Key facts

•Publication date: October 22, 2026
•Unit: Lahav 433
•Most recent questioning session: approximately 10 hours
•Previous questioning session: 11 hours
•No indictment has yet been filed

Two Lengthy Questioning Sessions

According to the Walla News website, Golan was questioned for 11 hours the previous day. Police told the website that the minister is expected to undergo several more days of investigative procedures. Police described the renewed summons for the very next day as a lawful part of the required investigative procedures.

What the Minister Is Suspected Of

Golan was questioned on suspicion of accepting a bribe, fraud, breach of trust, and obtaining something by deceit under aggravated circumstances. The source claims that she had previously failed to appear for questioning for several months. The criminal case numbers and specific statutory provisions are not stated in the report.

The Decision Remains with the State Attorney’s Office

Police assess that the evidentiary foundation collected is sufficient to file an indictment. However, the final decision must be made by the State Attorney’s Office. The source does not report that an indictment has been filed or that a judicial decision has been issued; at the stage described, these are only suspicions and an ongoing investigation.

What this means for you

The police’s position that sufficient evidence exists does not automatically lead to the filing of an indictment or to a determination that a person is guilty. The State Attorney’s Office must separately review the investigative materials and decide whether to file an indictment; until then, the investigation may continue and include additional questioning sessions.
