(Reuters) Israel’s attorney-general intends to indict Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu in three corruption cases, Israeli TV said on Thursday, citing the Justice Ministry.
The reported decision, ahead of Israel’s April 9 election, deepens uncertainty over Netanyahu’s prospects in a tight race.
The actual filing of the reported charges, which include bribery, fraud and breach of trust, will depend on the outcome of a required hearing. At that hearing – likely after the election – Netanyahu can try to persuade the attorney-general not to indict him.
Netanyahu, who is seeking a fourth consecutive term, denies any wrongdoing. In the long-running investigations, he is suspected of wrongfully accepting gifts from wealthy businessmen and dispensing favors in alleged bids for favorable coverage by a newspaper and a website.
Netanyahu’s right-wing Likud party described the reported charges as “political persecution”. It said the prime minister, who has vowed not to resign over the allegations, was due to deliver a statement at 8 p.m. (1800 GMT).
Uhuru & Ruto to follow suit…
Uhuru & Ruto to follow suit. Since we now can figure out they must be involved in the mega scandals.
A good indicate is like the recent Merrali agreed to give our millions to secure a land in westland, while believing he’s talking to real and familiar Uhuru. Even though it was a conman impersonating the President it still indicates that the 2 knew each others in the sort of give and take game.
Although it’s impossible in the Kenya judiciary but with wananchi to take action can be done within a month.
This starts with long term streets demonstration in all major towns
