Judges in the corruption trial of Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu have suggested they may summon the current Attorney General, Gali Baharav-Miara, to testify. The proposal came after the defense teams for Netanyahu and co-defendant Shaul Elovitch requested that Baharav-Miara be called to the stand, following testimony from former Attorney General Avichai Mandelblit regarding investigative actions.
Presiding Judge Oded Shaham indicated that the court had already been considering this possibility independently. "I'm not sure a request is needed, we thought we should do it ourselves," Shaham stated, suggesting the judges' inclination to call Baharav-Miara predated the defense's formal request. The judges are weighing whether to formally summon the Attorney General to provide testimony relevant to the ongoing investigation and trial proceedings.
