[AFP] | An anti-corruption watchdog group mounted
a legal challenge on Wednesday against a decision to drop a long-running bribery
case against Israeli Prime Minister Ariel Sharon, court sources said.
The petition was filed by the Movement for Quality in Government a day after
Israeli Attorney-General Menachem Mazuz closed his investigation, saying he
lacked evidence to charge Sharon. The ruling was seen as a boost for Sharon's
Gaza withdrawal plan.
