Associates of AG: If PM indicted but acquitted, law enforcement will be in ruins
Add ToI as a Preferred Source on GoogleHadashot news reports on the challenge that will face Attorney General Avichai Mandelblit if and when police recommend indicting the prime minister on criminal charges.
Sources close to Mandelblit tell the TV station that “an indictment followed by an exoneration in court would mean the ruin of Israeli law enforcement.”
They say that though police are leaning towards recommending an indictment in Case 1000 — in which Netanyahu is alleged to have received illicit gifts from Hollywood producer Arnon Milchan — officials believe the case still lacks a smoking gun that firmly establishes an illicit relationship.
Mandelblit’s deliberations on the cases could be lengthy, the officials warn.
