Netanyahu Trial Defense Argues Charges Should Be Dismissed
Attorney Ilan Bombach argued that the Netanyahu trial is marred by "negligent and intentional failures" and "misrepresentations made falsely to the court." He believes these issues, particularly concerning the approval of the investigation, justify a motion to dismiss the indictment based on "protection from justice." Bombach stated the court could "completely cancel the indictment" due to the proceedings' severe contradiction of legal fairness principles.

Attorney Ilan Bombach stated on Monday that the Netanyahu trial is characterized by a series of "negligent and intentional failures," including "misrepresentations made falsely to the court." Bombach specifically addressed claims that the Attorney General approved the investigation's opening, asserting that "it turns out he did not appoint and not a fraction of it." He believes these issues warrant a "request for protection from justice." Bombach indicated that the defense has gathered a critical mass of arguments and evidence, particularly after the testimony of Avichai Mandelblit, and plans to submit a motion to dismiss the indictment. He argued that the "criminal proceedings were conducted so severely, in fundamental contradiction to the principles of justice and fairness," that the court has the authority to "completely cancel the indictment."
Bombach's comments followed a report suggesting Mandelblit felt pressured, with the phrase "they held him by the throat" used to describe his situation, and that he had become a "puppet of Shai Nitzan," the former Attorney General.
