Police say they have evidence top Netanyahu aide broke law
Police say they’ve collected evidence of fraud and breach of trust against top Netanyahu adviser Perach Lerner, following a year-long investigation.
“Evidence has been collected showing apparent illegal activity and the passing of non-public information to a relative of hers, having to do with actors who were involved in business with him,” the statement reads.
The evidence has been passed along to the state prosecution for a decision on how to move forward, a police statement says.
The statement does not say whether police called for Lerner’s prosecution, though Hebrew media reports police have made the recommendation.
