Jerusalem - Israeli police questioned Prime
Minister Benjamin Netanyahu on Thursday for the fifth time over
suspicions of corruption, Israeli media reported.
A Reuters cameraman saw police investigators arrive by car
late in the day to Netanyahu's official residence, where
previous interrogations have taken place.
Officials with the police and Netanyahu's office declined to
comment to Reuters on their visit, but Israel media, without
citing sources, widely reported he was being questioned again.
No charges have been brought against Netanyahu, who has been
in power since 2009 and has denied wrongdoing.
He is a suspect in two cases, one involving the receipt of
gifts from businessmen and the other related to conversations he
held with an Israeli newspaper publisher about limiting
competition in the news sector in exchange for more positive
coverage.
Police said earlier this week that a top Netanyahu confidant
had been questioned as part of a different investigation into a
$2 billion submarine deal with Germany.
