Israel's police are uggesting that Prime Minister Ehud Olmert be indicted in a string of corruption cases.
An official document, सय्स the police are seeking to indict Olmert in matters that include receiving tens of thousands of dollars from a U.S. businessman and double-billing Jewish groups for trips abroad.
The suggestion would have only limited effect. Whether to indict Olmert is a decision the attorney general would make, and police recommendations to indict Israeli leaders have been turned down in the past.
As for the political effect, Olmert has already announced he would resign later this month because of the multiple corruption investigations.
Though he has been dogged by corruption charges through his long public career, Olmert has never been indicted and has denied all wrongdoing.
