Upon leaving the courtroom, the Netanyahus’ ex-custodian maintains Sara Netanyahu is “lying” in her testimony, and insists that no one is paying him to come forward.
“She’s lying big time, they taught her how to lie,” he says, according to Channel 2.

“She talks about a difficult period, I’m going through a terrible period. No one is funding me, no one wants to hire me. My children are suffering in school,” he reports.
“I believe I’m being made an example of,” he adds. “Today, a weight has been lifted off my chest.”
The ex-caretaker also says that despite the litigation, he continues to support the Likud party.
“I vote for Likud, my parents vote for Likud,” he states.
