Mandelblit wants Netanyahu to resign if indicted — report
Attorney General Avichai Mandelblit believes that if Netanyahu is indicted on any of the corruption cases against him, he should resign from office, Channel 10 reports.
Under Israeli law, Netanyahu does not have to resign if he is indicted in a criminal case, only if he is convicted. Likud officials have insisted that Netanyahu won’t resign if he is charged with any corruption-related offenses.
The report says that Mandelblit’s stance on Netanyahu is his personal opinion, and not the official stance of the Justice Ministry of law enforcement officials.
