Nov. 21 (UPI) -- Israeli prosecutors indicted Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu Thursday on charges of bribery, fraud and breach of trust -- following a lengthy investigation the Israeli leader has dismissed as a "witch hunt."
Israeli Attorney General Avichai Mandelblit's move to charge Netanyahu sides with long-running police investigations involving three cases. Mandelblit said he consulted with more than 20 senior legal officials about the investigations, known as cases 1000, 2000 and 4000.
