‘An Israeli court has convicted former Prime Minister Ehud Olmert, who is to start serving jail term for bribery, on two counts of obstruction of justice.
The Jerusalem Magistrates Court’s ruling came after Olmert pleaded guilty to pressuring a confidant to not testify against him in several cases of bribery and corruption.
Olmert made the confession as part of a plea bargain, which required him to confess to the charges in return for the six-month imprisonment for those felonies being served concurrently with a separate 18-month prison sentence he already received over the bribery scandal.’
