Israel's Supreme Court rejected an appeal to overrule prosecutors and charge Benjamin Netanyahu, the Prime Minister, with fraud in a government influence-peddling scandal. The court rejected the petitions by a 4-1 vote, ruling that the prosecutors' decision, that there was not enough evidence to indict Mr Netanyahu, was reasonable.
