Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu indicted on bribe and fraud charges

The indictment marks the first time in Israeli history that a sitting prime minister has been charged with a crime.

 

Israel's attorney general announced Thursday that his office had indicted Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu on corruption charges after a two-year investigation.

 

The prime minister faces one count of bribery and two counts of fraud and breach of trust.

…..

The attorney general's decision to publish his conclusions 39 days prior to the general election on April 9 is raising questions about what impact it can have on the outcome of the vote.

 

Israeli media reported Thursday that with just hours to go before Mandelblit's anticipated decision to indict Netanyahu, his Likud Party filed a petition to the Supreme Court to stop the announcement from happening before the election on the grounds that it would unfairly impact on Netanyahu's prospects of re-election. However, the court's spokesperson confirmed later in the afternoon that the petition was rejected.

 

The indictment marks the first time in Israeli history that a sitting prime minister has been charged with a crime.

 

Legal experts in Israel say it could take up to a year for a hearing process into the charges to end and an additional two years for a court case to be heard.
