POSTED: 9:45 a.m. EDT, October 16, 2006
JERUSALEM (CNN) -- Police in Israel are recommending that the country's
president be charged with rape and other crimes against several women.
Police issued a statement Sunday announcing that authorities have asked
Attorney General Menahem Mazuz to charge Israeli President Moshe Katsav with
rape, indecent assault and sexual harassment of an undisclosed number of
women.
Investigators also have evidence that Katsav illegally pardoned people
convicted of crimes and conducted illegal wiretaps, the statement said.
