Israel’s former Prime Minister Ehud Olmert has been handed a suspended jail sentence and a fine for breach of trust.
A Jerusalem court convicted Olmert in July of being improperly involved in directing contracts to friends of a business associate.
On Monday he was sentenced to serve one to three years on probation and pay a NIS 75,000 (£11,800) fine. He will not be forced to carry out community work.
The conviction related to incidents which took place while he was serving as industry, trade and labour minister.
