| Description | Attorney General Avichai Mandelblit announced on Sunday that he will file an indictment, pending a hearing, against senior Likud MK David Bitan for bribery, fraud and breach of trust, as well as money laundering and tax offenses.
Bitan is accused of receiving NIS 992,000 ($287,000) in bribes while serving as deputy mayor of Rishon Lezion and as a Knesset member.
Ephraim Dimri, a lawyer representing Bitan, dismissed the charges, saying they would be dropped in the pre-indictment hearing. |
