Yair Netanyahu wins libel suit against activist Abie Binyamin
Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s son, Yair, wins a libel lawsuit against a Labor party activist Abie Binyamin
Netanyahu sued Binyamin for NIS 140,000 ($37,000) in damages over a Facebook post that claimed the premier had asked the Mossad to issue his son a passport under a different name, which he then used to hide money offshore.
The Tel Aviv District Court rules in favor of Netanyahu, and orders Binyamin to pay the premier’s son NIS 20,000 in damages and another NIS 7,500 in legal fees.
