Sara Netanyahu, who is married to Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, pleaded guilty on Sunday to misusing state funding to order catered meals.
Netanyahu admitted to wrongdoing in a plea agreement that will result in no jail time, Reuters reported. She will pay 45,000 shekels ($12,490) as a reimbursement and 10,000 additional shekels ($2,775) as a fine.{mosads}
Netanyahu and a government employee were accused of using more than $100,000 in state funds for hundreds of meals, Reuters reported, citing an indictment.
“Do you understand what you admitted to?” the judge asked Netanyahu at a Sunday court hearing, according to the wire service.
“Yes, I do,” she replied.
Separately, her husband is facing three corruption cases, according to the wire service. Those cases will not be affected by Sunday’s plea.
