High Court throws out Likud petition against PM indictment announcement
The High Court rejects a Likud petition against the expected announcement today of bribery and breach of trust charges against Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu pending a hearing.
A panel of three judges rejects the petition outright, arguing that a similar previous petition was thrown out and that the current petition was filed with a significant delay when it was clear for some time that Attorney General Avichai Mandelblit intends to make the declaration before the April elections.
