State prosecutor recuses himself from Herzog probe
State Prosecutor Shai Nitzan recuses himself from the investigation into alleged corruption by Zionist Union leader Isaac Herzog due to a conflict of interest, Haaretz reports.
The newspapers says Nitzan has disassociated himself from the investigation over “familiarity with one of those involved with police.”
Herzog denies that he has committed any infraction and vows to make those behind the allegations pay a heavy price.
