Group accuses Mandelblit of ‘legitimizing corruption’

The Movement for Quality Government in Israel criticizes Attorney General Avichai Mandelblit for telling the High Court there is no legal impediment to Benjamin Netanyahu forming the government and continuing as prime minister despite his criminal indictments.

“Mandelblit is hiding behind vague words and legitimizing corruption,” the group says in a statement. “We are saddened by the weak response by the person in charge of keeping the law.

“We are sure the court will intervene and show a red card to a criminal defendant forming the government.”
