Officials at Tel Hashomer Hospital reported on Tuesday 3 Tammuz that former Prime Minister Ehud Olmert was discharged. The former prime minister last week stated he did not feel well and after examined by a prison doctor and his personal physician, it was determined to hospitalize him to rule out a possible cardiac incident.
After determining he is fit for discharge, Mr. Olmert was returned to Massiyahu Prison on Tuesday. On Wednesday, a parole board is scheduled to announce if his latest request to wipe one-third from his sentence for good behavior would be granted. The prosecution is opposed to the early release.
