"Justice Ministry officials confirmed on Tuesday that Attorney General Menachem Mazuz received material regarding the sale of Bank Leumi's controlling shares from the State Comptroller's Office.

According to the suspicions, first published by the NFC website, Prime Minister Ehud Olmert and other officials committed bribery offenses in the sales tender.

The attorney general transferred the material to State Prosecutor Eran Shendar to examine and decide how to act. At this stage, no decisions have been made and no criminal procedure has been launched.

Legal sources said, however, that the allegations the State Prosecutor's Office is looking into are criminal allegations."
