Public Security Minister Gilad Erdan will move forward on appointing a new police chief despite entering election season, provided he gets legal approval from Attorney-General Avichai Mandelblit, Channel 2 reported late Tuesday.

Traditionally, it is frowned upon or even illegal to make major appointments during election season to avoid impropriety regarding the appointment.

However, The Jerusalem Post learned on Monday that the unique circumstances of the current police chief process – including the fact that the process started long ago, the crucial nature of the position and that the former chief already stepped down – may allow an appointment of a new chief as an exception to the rule.

If the process goes forward, there would be five candidates, including two former IDF major-generals and three currently serving top police officials, according to Channel 2.

The current acting police chief, Moti Cohen, who has passed the polygraph test failed by Moshe Edri, Erdan’s original choice, is now viewed as the leading candidate.

Cohen was appointed three weeks ago as a place saver for 45 days when it became apparent that Edri would drop out and former police chief Roni Alsheich was already stepping down.
