[58924] Development in the Eyal Golan case: Cross-investigations by the police

Branching out in the investigation of singer Eyal Golan

Legal drama in the case of singer Eyal Golan: Media outlets are reporting that the police are expected to summon the complainant against Golan for questioning under caution regarding sexual offenses alleged to have occurred nine years ago. As published in Channel 12 News (via War Room), the step comes after Golan filed a counter-complaint for extortion under threats, and after the State Attorney's Office requested to conduct supplementary investigations in the original case.

According to a report on News from the Field on Telegram, the police's decision to summon the complainant for questioning under caution is based on "new evidentiary materials provided by the singer" as part of his complaint about extortion. The same report noted that an additional investigation scheduled for Golan was canceled in light of the examination of the new materials.

At the same time, reports in ynet and Israel Hayom confirm that Golan himself will be summoned in the coming days for further questioning under caution. In Channel 12 News it was clarified that the summons of the singer for questioning in the next two weeks stems from the request of the State Attorney's Office to complete the full picture surrounding the original complaint of sexual offenses.

As of this time, it appears that the police are conducting a complex procedure that combines the examination of claims for both sides, as the focus has shifted to cross-investigations of the singer and the complainant in parallel.
