Israel police grill Netanyahu on new fraud cases
Jerusalem, (MILLAT ONLINE):Israeli police arrived on Friday at Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s home where media reports said
they were to question him for an eighth time over allegations of fraud and bribery.
An AFP journalist saw detectives arriving at Netanyahu’s official Jerusalem residence in two
vehicles at around 9 am (0700 GMT).
Police issued no official confirmation that questioning was under way.
Investigators were at the same time to take a statement from his wife Sara at national fraud
squad headquarters near Tel Aviv, media said.
A former Netanyahu aide and a top businessman are both in custody, linked to allegations of
suspected fraud by the premier.
Nir Hefetz, a former media adviser to the Netanyahu family, and Shaul Elovitch, the controlling
shareholder of telecoms group Bezeq, were among seven suspects arrested last week as fraud suspicions
against Netanyahu snowballed.
