Sharon son charged in finance row

28 August 2005

The son of Israel's prime minister has been formally indicted on corruption charges, the justice ministry has said.

The indictment of Omri Sharon, announced last month, follows an investigation into corruption in the funding of his father's party.

The charges relate to Ariel Sharon's 1999 bid to lead the Likud Party and to be its candidate for prime minister.

Attention will be focused on how the charges affect the prime minister, who has consistently denied involvement.

So Omri violating campaign finance laws related to his father's bid for office but Daddy doesn't know anything about it. Yeah sure, if you believe that I've got a bridge in Brooklyn I'd like to sell you.
