      Olmert Willing to Undergo Lie Detector Test


      Prime Minister Ehud Olmert's lawyer, Eli Zohar, said Wednesday that Olmert and his legal team were willing to undergo polygraph tests to help find out who leaked the contents of the police probe against Olmert to the media.

      Zohar gave Attorney General Menachem Mazuz a list of 26 people, most of them from Olmert's legal team, who had access to the investigation materials in the Talansky case.

      "All of the people on the Prime Minister's team, including the Prime Minister himself, have voiced their agreement to undergo a polygraph test, if and when it is necessary," Zohar wrote.
