Israeli AG Yet to Investigate French Tycoon’s Alleged 1 Million Euro Donation to Netanyahu

Israeli officials have failed to follow up on testimony by a French tycoon that he gave Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu about one million euros to cover election campaign expenses.

The claim was made by accused fraudster Arnaud Mimran in a Paris court two weeks ago.

In addition to Mimran’s testimony, the judges in Mimran’s trial said there was other evidence proving that Netanyahu was given money, though they did not elaborate.
