PM’s lawyer dismisses report as ‘minor affair’

Lawyer Shuli Eshbol, who represents Prime Minister Netanyahu regarding the state comptroller’s report on his personal spending, says the report is “definitely a minor report.”

Eshbol tells Israel Radio that one must remember the Prime Minister’s Residence is not a private home, but an official dwelling where “dozens of people come and go every day.”

Eshbol admits that there were two years where expenses grew significantly, but blames this on the caretaker during those years, Manny Naftali.
