Likud asks High Court to reject petitions against PM forming government
The Likud party tells the High Court of Justice it believes petitions against a new government under Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu should be rejected out of hand.
Petitions have claimed Netanyahu should not be allowed to form a government while he’s under indictment in three criminal cases.
Likud says the court should not intervene in the considerations of the president and Knesset members, while noting that the law allows Netanyahu to continue serving as prime minister so long as he has not been found guilty of crimes.
