Israeli lawmakers propose eliminating a key corruption charge in Netanyahu’s trial, citing legal vagueness, sparking accusations of political bias.
Israeli right-wing coalition lawmakers introduced a bill to eliminate the criminal charge of "fraud and breach of trust," a key part of Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s corruption trial.
The proposal, led by Ofir Katz, Simcha Rothman, and Mishel Buskila, argues the law is too vague and enables selective prosecution.
They seek to replace it with clearer statutes on conflicts of interest and insider trading, citing concerns over legal ambiguity and prosecutorial overreach.
Critics, including opposition leaders and civil society groups, accuse the move of being politically motivated to shield Netanyahu and weaken accountability, calling it a threat to democracy.
The bill is set for review by the Ministerial Committee for Legislation.
