Israeli police revealed Tuesday they had arrested several friends and confidants of Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, increasing the pressure on the scandal hit premier, who faces allegations of corruption.
The arrests were part of an
investigation known as “Case 4000,” which centers on whether two of Netanyahu’s
associates – and potentially the premier himself – pushed legislation worth
hundreds of millions of dollars to Israel’s largest telecom, Bezeq, in exchange
for favorable coverage of Netanyahu on a subsidiary news site, Walla.
