Minister of Culture and Sport Miki Zohar unequivocally dismissed the possibility that Yonatan Uriach might become a state witness against Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu. During an interview on Radio 103FM on Thursday, Zohar stated there was "no chance" of this happening, asserting Uriach had no reason to do so and had committed no criminal act. Zohar expressed confidence that any attempt to portray Uriach as a criminal would fail.
The minister's remarks came in response to a direct question from interviewer Sivan Cohen about Uriach potentially testifying against the Prime Minister. Zohar presented two clear positions: first, that he saw no reason for Uriach to agree to become a state witness, and second, that he believed attempts to frame Uriach as a criminal would be unsuccessful.
