AG to decide ‘in the coming days’ on PM’s request to delay indictment

Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s defense lawyers met with Attorney General Avichai Mandelblit earlier today to discuss the bribery cases involving the premier.

Netanyahu’s lawyers asked for the meeting to request that Mandelblit delay announcing a possible indictment until after the upcoming April 9 elections.

After the two hour meeting, the attorney general’s office said in a statement that Mandelblit would take the arguments into consideration, and will “formulate his decision in the coming days.”
