Sharon to face corruption probe
Israeli Prime Minister Ariel Sharon will be questioned by police later this week in connection with two corruption probes, it was reported today.
The reports said police would question Sharon about allegations that he obtained an illegal loan during his 1999 primary election campaign – possibly in exchange for financial favours – and that he was bribed by an Israeli businessman to promote a property development project in Greece while serving as foreign minister in the 1990s.
