Amir Dan, Prime Minister Ehud Olmert's communications director, said Wednesday that the prime minister will not suspend himself from office, following Attorney General Menachem Mazuz's decision to indict him in the Rishon Tours' double billing affair.
"Olmert has already stepped down as prime minister. Under these circumstances it is clear that there is no significance, legal or otherwise, to him suspending himself. The prime minister intends on carrying on with the duties of his office until the new government is formed," said Dan
