Professors urge President Herzog to reject PM's pardon request
A group of some 1,000 professors and academics have signed a letter calling on President Yitzhak Herzog to reject Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu’s request for a pardon related to his ongoing corruption trials.
One of the signatories was Prof Avishai Braverman, the former president of Ben-Gurion university and a 2020 Israel Prize winner.
He told KAN's Mark Weiss why he signed the letter.
