Israeli prosecutors are considering whether to indict Prime Minister Ariel Sharon after a court Wednesday indicted a businessman on charges of trying to bribe him in the 1990s, a Justice Ministry source said.
The source said prosecutors would decide within months whether to charge Sharon along with his son, Gilad, and Deputy Prime Minister Ehud Olmert, a close ally in ruling Likud party.
"The state attorney's office will take from a few weeks to a few months to decide whether or not charges will be brought against Sharon, Olmert and Gilad on the Greek island affair," the source said, referring to a real estate deal.
"There is a 50 percent chance that they will indict (Sharon)," Moshe Negbi, Israel Radio's legal analyst, told Reuters, adding Sharon would have to leave office if charged. article
