Attorney general files indictment against Netanyahu at Jerusalem District Court

Following Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s announcement that he is abandoning his bid to receive parliamentary immunity, the attorney general is not wasting any time and a short time ago filed the indictment against Netanyahu at the Jerusalem District Court.

“The indictment was filed a short time ago… as is required by law,” his office says.

It is not yet clear when the prime minister’s trial will actually begin, though most commentators doubt it will happen before the March 2 election.
