Police seek to question Jewish Home MK in sexual harassment case
Add ToI as a Preferred Source on GooglePolice investigators ask Attorney General Avichai Mandelblit on Wednesday for permission to cross-examine under caution a lawmaker accused of sexual harassment.
MK Nissan Slomianski, of the Orthodox-nationalist Jewish Home party, denied the allegations leveled against him after they surfaced during testimony given by several women before a rabbinic committee.
Investigators say several women have given testimony against Slomianski, and a full investigation would be the next step in an ordinary case. But police need special dispensation to investigate a sitting MK.
