Netanyahu lawyers ask AG for pre-indictment hearing to be public

Prime Minister Netanyahu’s lawyers send a letter to Attorney General Avichai Mandelblit requesting his pre-indictment hearing next week be held publicly, according to Hebrew media reports.

Netanyahu put out a video earlier today calling for Mandelblit to broadcast the October 2-3 hearing live.

He didn’t say whether he will personally attend the hearing or just dispatch his lawyers.

Netanyahu faces charges in three separate corruption cases. He denies any wrongdoing.
