      Alleged Rishontours Accomplice Set for Trial Next Month


      The trial of Rachel Risby-Raz, accused of embezzlement and fraud in the Rishontours case against former prime minister Ehud Olmert, is scheduled to start in Jerusalem District Court next month.

      Olmert is suspected of opening an account with Rishontours in which he is accused of placing more than $85 thousand obtained from duplicate and triplicate billing of the government and organizations for flights abroad. The funds were allegedly used to pay for trips by family members.
