Israeli PM Netanyahu's Alleged Corruption Case Trial Is Held Again

JAKARTA - The trial of Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's corruption case was held again after a break of two months.

The Jerusalem District Court will hear a number of testimonies regarding the accusations against the Israeli PM, according to KAN media as reported by ANTARA from Anadolu, Monday, December 4.

Netanyahu faces charges of bribery, fraud and breach of trust in one case, and charges of fraud and breach of trust in two other cases. But he denied the accusations.

Netanyahu is allowed not to attend court hearings, but he may be asked to testify in a few months, according to the Yedioth Ahronoth newspaper.

Netanhayu's first trial in the corruption case was held on 24 May 2020, which was then scheduled to continue in October but was interrupted due to a Hamas attack on 7 October.
