Former PM Ehud Olmert to be indicted in Holyland corruption affair
The Tel Aviv District's prosecution announced Monday that it intends on indicting former Prime Minister Ehud Olmert as well as other suspects in the Holyland affair for corruption, bribery, and other charges.

The prosecution accepted the police recommendation to put the suspects on trial due to their participation in the alleged bribery scheme involving the "Holyland" residence project in Jerusalem, which was promoted during Olmert's decade-long tenure as the city's mayor.

The indictment against Olmert is pending a hearing, and other suspects in the affair include former Jerusalem mayor Uri Lupolianski, Olmert's former assistant Shula Zaken, and other key figures.
