Communications Ministry chief sent to house arrest in Bezeq probe

Shlomo Filber, director general of the Communications Ministry is sent to two weeks of house arrest in the ongoing investigation into graft suspicions surrounding the regulation of the Bezeq telecom giant.

The arrest of Filber, a close associate of Prime Minister (and former communications minister) Benjamin Netanyahu, comes a day after a scathing state comptroller report alleging improprieties in decision-making at the highest echelons of the ministry related to Bezeq.
