Former MK Michael Kleiner, who is running in the Likud party primaries for a slot on their list of proposed members of Knesset, said Wednesday that (Labor party Chairman Ehud) Barak's decision to appeal for a third set of court proceedings in the matter of Noam Federman crosses the line and becomes a political vendetta afflicted with a lack of reasonability, and motivated by election considerations only.
"Let Barak pay all the costs of the appeal from the Labor party's funds and not from the government's funds," Kleiner said.
