Israeli Prime Minister petitioned to cancel prosecution decisions, including bribery, January 2 at 6:54
Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu has opposed the prosecutor's decision to prosecute for bribery and other charges and has petitioned Parliament to reverse the decision by law.
Israeli prosecutors accused Netanyahu in November of last year for demanding local telcos in favor of local media outlets by asking Britain for media coverage in favor of the administration. Has been decided to be prosecuted.
In response, Prime Minister Netanyahu held a news conference on Tuesday, stating, "The investigation is a build-up. We will take necessary steps to lead the country in the future." Announced that it had filed a petition with Congress to cancel the indictment.
Whether or not Netanyahu will be prosecuted will be at the discretion of Congress, which will have three extraordinary general elections in March this year, Deliberation begins after the election.
This raises an important issue, as the election of the ruling coalition party led by Prime Minister Netanyahu in the next election will have a ten-year continuation of the administration and the decision to prosecute will be revoked. That's right.
