Rehovot Mayor Faces Indictment
(IsraelNN.com) The mayor of Rehovot, Shuky Forer, will be charged with breach of trust and conspiracy to commit a crime for allegedly violating campaign funding laws, State Prosecutor’s Office workers announced Sunday. Forer has been under investigation since 2003. Other senior city officials face charges as well.
Sources close to Forer, who is backed by the Kadima party, expressed confidence that the charges against him “amount to nothing” and would be dismissed. Sources quoted in Yediot Acharonot hinted that the indictment was timed to hurt Forer’s chances of re-election.
