Alwaght- Tens of hundreds of protesters gathered outside Israeli regime’s attorney general’s home calling fo immediate indictment of Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu over corruption.
On Saturday, some 2,000 people took part in a protest in the city of Petah Tikva outside attorney General Avichai Mandelblit’s home over Netanyahu’s various high-profile corruption charges.
The weekly vigils have become the vanguard of a grassroots protest movement against Netanyahu’s financial misdeeds and illicit ties to executives in media, international business and Hollywood.
The demonstrators accused Mandelblit of foot-dragging on Netanyahu's corruption probes, in one of which he is suspected of having received gifts from businessmen overseas.
Earlier in the month, Mandelblit said the two major probes involving Netanyahu, called Case 1000 and Case 2000, were “moving forward at high speed” and there would be no shortcuts.
"There have been several reports about the outcome of the investigations, but in order for the investigations to run smoothly, those reports shouldn't be verified or unverified as of now because that might open a door to leaks of information which might harm the investigations,” he said.
In Case 1000, Netanyahu is suspected of having received gifts from foreign businessmen.
