Netanyahu Seeks Mendeleev Testimony Pre-Elections
Prime Minister Netanyahu's request to summon former Attorney General Avichai Mandelblit to testify before the elections is part of his defense in the corruption case he is facing. His defense raises claims that there was no written legal approval from Mandelblit to open the investigations, despite the court's affirmation in February 2021 that the verbal approval was valid. The court questioned several investigators about the initiation of the investigations before obtaining Mandelblit's approval. Additionally, the July 2016 meeting addressed previous suspicions related to the investigations, during which Mandelblit expressed hesitation about conducting a criminal probe against the then-Prime Minister. Furthermore, a former police officer testified that information about the investigation into the gifts case emerged after the investigation into Netanyahu's residences, as part of the defense team's attempt to undermine the procedures and legitimacy of the investigation.
