Netanyahu Trial Reveals Key Closed-Door Testimony from Nir Hefetz

In the ongoing trial of Benjamin Netanyahu, the court allowed the media to disclose that Nir Hefetz, referred to as a close associate of the state witness, testified behind closed doors on Sunday. Hefetz was summoned by the defense to provide testimony regarding the controversial interrogation tactics used against the state witness in Case 4000, details of which remain under a gag order. The judges noted that the testimony primarily concerned the investigative procedures conducted in relation to Hefetz himself. Nir Hefetz served as the Netanyahu family's spokesperson from 2014 to 2017, the period during which the events central to Case 4000 took place. His testimony is considered a crucial piece of evidence in the trial.
