Police finish questioning Deri in corruption case

Interior Minister Aryeh Deri finishes giving testimony to police in the ongoing corruption case against him.

A statement from police spokeswoman Luba Samri this afternoon says Deri was questioned from “early morning until just now,” at the Lahav 433 police unit headquarters in the city of Lod.

Samri says there will be no further statement on Deri’s latest questioning, as the investigation is ongoing.

Deri is suspected of money laundering, fraud and breach of trust, theft by an authorized person, fraudulent registration, and tax offenses, according to police.

He was questioned by Lahav 433 investigators for over 11 hours last week.
