Sara Netanyahu Grilled In Fraud Probe as Bibi Faces Threat from Former Aide

Local Editor

‘Israeli' occupation police questioned Zionist Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's wife, Sara, for two hours on Wednesday on suspicion that she diverted public money for her private housekeeping expenses.

The interrogation came as a new threat loomed over Netanyahu in his own battle with corruption charges, with his former chief of staff considered an offer to turn state's witness.

Sara Netanyahu was interrogated at National Fraud Squad headquarters near Tel Aviv over allegations she used public money for personal housekeeping expenses at the couple's official and private residences.

Like previous rounds of questioning of both the premier and his wife, police issued no statement on Sara Netanyahu's questioning.

The questioning came as reports swirled around tribulations facing the Zionist PM after his former chief of staff, Ari Harow, agreed to give evidence against his former boss in exchange for immunity from prosecution for his own acts.

Harow has been under investigation for more than two years on suspicion of bribery, breach of trust, conflict of interest and fraud and has reportedly been giving investigators information on two of the ongoing investigations into wrongdoing by Netanyahu.
