Moshe Saada was born in 1972 in Ramot Meir

Moshe Saada was born on 14 September 1972 and grew up in Moshav Ramot Meir. His father, Rabbi Nissim Saada, was born in Tunis and served as rabbi of the moshav and of the Gezer Regional Council. His mother, Malka, was born in Morocco and worked as a kindergarten teacher.

He studied at a Haredi Talmud Torah, then at a yeshiva high school and at the Shaalvim hesder yeshiva. He served in the army as a combat soldier in the Nahal Brigade.

His whole legal career was in the Police Internal Investigations Department of the State Attorney's Office, where he became deputy head. In 2016 he acted as head of the department. In 2020 he applied to be State Attorney, was later dismissed, and sued for workplace abuse, a claim settled in November 2024.

He was placed 28th on the Likud list and elected to the Knesset in 2022. In June 2026 the Knesset approved his amendment moving the department from the State Attorney's Office to the Ministry of Justice.
