Messer to Police: 'I Acted on Olmert's Behalf'
(IsraelNN.com) Attorney Uri Messer, Prime Minister Ehud Olmert's longtime associate, told police: "I did not act for myself or on my own. I acted with Ehud's knowledge and on his behalf." According to Maariv/NRG, Messer's testimony to police implicated Olmert in criminal wrongdoing and included detailed information about the way in which contributions, which are now suspected to be bribes, were passed on to Olmert.
Messer's testimony was described by sources as "dominant and solid," and "very meaningful."
Messer and Olmert were partners in a Jerusalem law firm in the past.
