(IsraelNN.com) Police investigators questioned billionaire Sheldon Adelson and tycoon Daniel Abrams Tuesday, as part of the widening investigation against Prime Minister Ehud Olmert. The two are in Israel in order to attend the President's Conference being hosted by President Shimon Peres.
Police suspect that Adelson was one of the businessmen whom Olmert contacted at Moshe Talansky's behest, and asked to buy the mini-bars that Talansky was marketing for hotels that they own. Adelson told police he did not recall that Olmert ever made such a request.
In addition, the police's National Fraud Investigations Unit raided the Ministry of Industry, Trade and Labor Tuesday in search of evidence for the investigation against Olmert. They were reportedly searching for correspondences having to do with Olmert's recommendation of Talansky's mini-bars.
