Businessman and philanthropist Moshe (Morris) Talansky took the stand again Friday for a second day of cross examination by Prime Minister Ehud Olmert's lawyers. He will testify for five hours after testifying for seven hours Thursday.
Olmert's lawyers hope to portray Talansky as a less than credible witness. Talansky said that he transferred envelopes with large amounts of cash into Olmert's hands on several occasions.
Israeli media gave extensive coverage to Talansky's original testimony against Olmert but is playing down the cross-examination.
