The chairwomen of the State Control Committee, MK Shelly Yachimovich (Zionist Union), responded to Nochi Dankner's tougher sentence.
"The decision of the Supreme Court is a clear signal not only to Nochi Dankner himself, but also to a long list of guilty parties who took part in his faulty and exploitative actions, backed him up, and turned him into a hero, ministers and MKs served him, weak regulators turned a blind eye, He had money without proper collateral, a vast majority of which financed and transformed him into God, alongside institutional investors who burned the public's money.
It should be remembered that Nochi Dankner has indeed fallen, and today he is punished again, but his demons still exist. They still have a corrupt defense envelope at the expense of the entire public, and whoever fights them becomes a target for ugly attacks. "
