Sharon Son Must Yield Key Probe Papers--High Court
Mon Mar 29, 2004 02:19 AM ET



JERUSALEM (Reuters) - The Israeli Supreme Court on Monday ordered Prime Minister Ariel Sharon's son to hand over documents critical to investigating corruption scandals that could oust him from office.
The decision came a day after Israel's chief prosecutor formally recommended putting Sharon on trial for alleged taking of bribes from a businessman who was pursuing a Greek island development scheme that ultimately flopped.

In the other case, prosecutors believe Sharon's two sons used a $1.5 million loan from a South African businessman as collateral to repay alleged illicit contributions to a Sharon election campaign. Foreign funding of political campaigns is illegal in Israel.

Sharon's son Gilad, whom prosecutors said was in control of the documents, will comply with the high court decision, his lawyer said.
