Address:
86 Sharett Street, Tel Aviv.Mr. Kedem, it's my duty to warn you
that you must say the truth,
the whole truth
and nothing but the truth
or you may be punished
as prescribed by law.
Mr. Kedem,
what do you do for a living?
By training I'm an accredited lawyer,
by trade I own 50%
that's just starting out.
I'm also a cofounder
of Generation of Peace,
that's short for
A Whole Generation Demands Peace,
an organization that was founded
just after the assassination.
What did you do at the rally?
We were making our way
toward the stairs
where we hoped to get
We were thrilled by his courage
in continuing the peace process
despite the despicable attacks
by the fascist Right.
Please focus on the rally itself.
Do you remember barriers
being placed at a certain point?
While we were waiting for Shimon Peres
and Yitzhak Rabin,
I was talking with my girlfriend
about the very question of security
because what we saw there
seemed very odd.
Odd? In what way?
- Can you be more specific?
- Certainly.
First of all, when we got there
there was no order
and no one in charge.
A uniformed Riot Squad commander
was standing there
giving orders to his men:
You stand here, you do this.
I'm referring to the shoddy measures
that end in tragedy.
He stood there greeting his friends
who'd just arrived.
How are you? How's it going?
Chatting with them.
Can you show us exactly
where that was?
- Yes, if you have a diagram.
- Yes.
Sigal, can you show us
the diagram of the square?
We'll bring out a diagram
and you can show us exactly.
Go ahead.
Here was the barrier
on the stairway.
After that were two
or three barriers
that continued to the street
leading out of the parking lot.
I was standing -
After they put the barriers in place,
closest to the exit from the parking lot.
I was the last in line
where Shimon Peres came down
to shake people's hands.
The last person to shake his hand
before he went behind his Volvo
was me.
So you walk around freely.
more or less,
and from time to time
a policeman said, Folks, move back.
It was the same policeman
who later gave orders
to the Riot Squad.
Did you see what was happening
on the roof?
People stood there freely,
and I told my girlfriend
no problem shooting from there.
It also bothered me
that in the City Garden corner
there was only one
border patrolman.
Do you really think that I,
a simple bystander,
should be giving you
all this information?
Don't any of the so-called
security forces have any answers?
What's going on here?
Please state your name,
ID number and position.
My name is Rafael Yulazri.
I'm a police superintendent, commander
of the Ayalon District Riot Squad,
ID number 567 776.
It's my duty to warn you
that you must say the truth,
- the whole truth and nothing but the truth -
- Yes, sir.
Or you may be punished
as prescribed by law.
Please tell us about the rally
on November 4.
What was your position then?
I was under the deputy commander
of the Yarkon District Riot Squad,
provisory,
on the southwestern corner
of the stage.
What time did you arrive?
If my memory serves...
around 4:
30.- 4:
30 PM.- Yes.
- I came at 4:
30.- 4:
30 PM.And I went straight
to the first briefing,
and a half hour or hour later
I was asked to reinforce
the City Garden roof.
Reinforce? What do you mean?
Was someone there?
No, no one was there.
He asked me to place two men there.
I did
and added a few more men
including myself.
- Were there people in the parking lot?
- Yes.
A lot of people,
plainclothes security agents,
drivers.
Lots of people with food.
People with trays of food
going up and down.
And basically,
we sent away everyone
who wasn't supposed to be there.
Did you check any of the people
in the parking lot?
Not those beyond the barrier.
There was this secret service agent...
who told us to send them away.
So everyone we checked
who didn't have authorization,
we got rid of.
Other people came from the west
and the secret service agent pointed out
So I sent two men
from the Yarkon Riot Squad
over there,
and from then on,
almost nobody got in.
I can't say that the place was
totally sealed, but I can say -
Please go back to your place.
That everyone the secret agent
told us to get rid of -
- Yes, but go back to your place.
- we got rid of,
and from then on it was
the secret service's responsibility.
Yes, but you relied on his opinion.
Naturally.
But did you, the police,
also check people?
You see someone standing there,
leaning on a car.
Did anyone go up and ask him,
Who are you?
What are you doing here?
I want to make it clear
that the job we police did that day -
- Please go back to your place.
- Fine.
We police worked very hard that day.
We worked on the barrier.
It was war.
- We had to fight -
- Let me help you.
We had to fight
to keep it together.
Tell me exactly
what your assignment was.
To reinforce the troops
so people wouldn't get in
from Ibn Gabirol Street,
and that's just what we did.
I wasn't told to make
the place airtight.
No, not airtight.
But I'm asking
the policemen in charge
of the barrier,
did anyone tell you to check
who the people in the parking lot were?
I don't want to press the point,
but I personally
was never told anything
about making the place sterile!
Okay?
But it was obvious that
whoever didn't belong there
should be removed.
Or whoever the secret service agent said
was authorized to be there.
I gather from your words that you were
at the secret service's disposal.
To do whatever they told us.
From then on, the place
was almost completely sealed off.
No one could get in
from either the west or the east
unless they were authorized,
and we checked them.
Authorized like the assassin,
for instance?
No. Not the assassin.
I don't remember him coming in
or leaving.
No,
because he was already there.
Excuse me, sir,
are you being cynical?
No. He was already there.
He was there.
I beg your pardon,
but your cynicism is out of place.
Please continue
and stick to the facts.
He was there
and you didn't remove him.
That's true,
but your cynical implication that -
I beg your pardon.
No name-calling.
I'm asking you,
he was there
and you didn't remove him.
If you, sir, put it that way,
- I'll answer in kind.
- Go ahead.
I don't -
It's possible that he was there.
I don't know.
Mrs. Orot, please sum up
the testimony in two sentences.
Superintendent Rafael Yulazri's assignment
was to reinforce the troops
in order to prevent people coming in
from Ibn Gabirol Street.
The area was not defined as sterile.
He was not told explicitly
to remove everyone,
but it was clear that
unauthorized people
