Moshe Saadathe former deputy head of the police, is in no hurry to respond to the claims of the former police commissioner Roni Elshaikh However, he is satisfied with the letter of support he received from the former heads of the Ministry of Defense Herzl Shapiro and above all Uri Carmelwho during his term of office received sharp criticism from the commissioner in those days, especially during the investigation of the events in Umm al Hiran.
“Uri Carmel was threatened, not me, and he wrote the fact that Elsheich gave him a threatening message. He wrote the letter of support for me,” Saada says and feels confident.

In the letter, Carmel and Shapiro write. “Dear Moshe, as observers from the sidelines of the stormy events of the last few days, it was important for us to remind you at this difficult time, as you must know very well, how much from our very close acquaintance with you throughout your many years of service in the department, we were able to enjoy Your wisdom and your many talents.”
“From your unsurpassed dedication and diligence, from your integrity, your resilience, your courage and your willingness to strive for contact without fear and without bias, while adhering to the goals of the department and its tasks, from your excessive curiosity and your frequent thinking ‘outside the box’ from your manners, from your wide heart, you love people as they are people, and above all that throughout all those years of working together, you always acted as a ‘gatekeeper’ of values and faithful to his position, free from any extraneous or political considerations, for whom the truth was a candle to his feet,” they added.
Saada, was not hurt by the statements of Alsheikh who called him a liar and pointed out that it is possible to check the WhatsApp messages that the commissioner at the time sent to the head of the police department Uri Carmel in the midst of the Umm Al Hiran investigation. It turns out that on February 21, 2017, Alsheikh wrote to Carmel: “As much as, if they ask me, I will recommend dismantling Mhash and rebuilding it.”
Uri Carmel responded to him immediately: “Flat and offensive statements that are clearly unfounded and not the first time towards people who serve in the faith and before you knew us you threatened to disband Mahesh. Terminology that does not impress anyone and the announcements that you are an expert in dismantling hostile elements, and it is clear that this is an experience that you live in and this world is foreign to us and we have no part in it and the statements create a complete lack of trust in us. Out of respect for the body and its leader, I do not add anything.”
Moshe Saada pointed out to “Maariv”: “The words were sent by the person who was the head of the police in those days, and the response was not sent by the person who was the head of the police in real time. Not today and not in retrospect, but in real time.”
