Israeli court clears Olmert of most corruption charges
An Israeli court on Tuesday, July 10, cleared former Prime Minister Ehud Olmert of the most serious corruption charges against him, including fraud, concealing cash gifts and double billing, but convicted him on a lesser count of breach of trust.
Former Israeli prime minister Ehud Olmert was indicted on bribery charges Thursday, in what local media dub one of the largest corruption scandals in Israeli history.
