PM says recommendation for his indictment may not end in charges

Netanyahu says that even if there is a recommendation to charge him in a pair of corruption cases, he may not be indicted.

“Most recommendations end with nothing. [They] start with explosive headlines and end with nothing. In the meantime they destroy people’s lives.”

Then-MK Rivlin was investigated by police in 2001 on suspicion that he received money from a building contractor in exchange for advancing legislation that would have benefited the businessman. The investigation didn’t lead to any charges.

“Does anyone at all remember these recommendations?,” Netanyahu says.
