Police recommend Hadera mayor stand trial for corruption
Police recommend indicting Hadera Mayor Zvi Gendelman for fraud and breach of trust, along with a contractor with whom he had an alleged illicit electoral deal.
Gendelman is suspected of working in favor of contractor Sammy Levy when he was a mayoral candidate, in exchange for Levy’s support in the vote. The two didn’t report their ties to authorities as required, police say in a statement.
Conclusions in the investigation, conducted by the Lahav 433 anti-corruption unit, will now be handed to the state prosecution, which will make a final decision on whether to press charges.
