(Worthy News) – Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s indictment on corruption charges does not disqualify him from forming a government, Israel’s top court ruled unanimously on Wednesday, paving the way for the veteran leader to remain in power.
In its ruling against opposition petitioners, the High Court of Justice also found that Netanyahu’s unity government deal with his election rival Benny Gantz does not violate the law, dismissing arguments that it unlawfully shields him in a corruption trial.
The ruling came after two days of televised courtroom debates by the panel of 11 judges, after a number of petitioners questioned the legality of the unity agreement between Netanyahu’s Likud and Gantz’s Blue & White. [ Source: Ynet News (Read More…) ]
