Netanyahu, who is serving the fourth term in office, allegedly took luxury gifts from a businessman and offered a newspaper a legal edge over its competitor in exchange for favorable coverage.
In the statement, investigators announced a gag order on media coverage of their negotiations with the prime minister's former chief of staff Ari Harow.
Harow is expected to become state's witness in the two cases, dubbed Case 1000 and Case 2000, where Netanyahu is the main suspect, according to The Times of Israel newspaper.
The office of Israel's longest serving prime minister denied any wrongdoing. It claimed a campaign was underway to reshuffle the government but the effort would fail because there was nothing to it.
Comment: With any luck, there will be an orange jumpsuit and some numbers next to the mugshots. In the meantime, Bibi has remained 'at large' to do what he does best - Palestinian persecution, deriding all who are not bowing down to Israel's wishes and commands, raising a ruckus with accusations on a global scale while secretly infiltrating other governments and organizations.
