Deputy Minister for Regulatory Matters in the PMO MK Abir Kara (Yamina) is under a criminal investigation for voting twice in a Knesset vote half a year ago, Attorney General Avichai Mandelblit confirmed to N12 on Monday.
The incident occurred at the beginning of July, during a vote on the National Insurance Institution law. Kara voted both for himself and for fellow Yamina MK Idit Silman. He claimed it was a mistake and the vote was repeated.
The criminal investigation began on December 13, after MK Dudi Amsalem (Likud) filed a complaint.
