The Likud party court is investigating an allegation that Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's vote in the party's primary was forged, ynet reported Sunday evening. The probe was announced as a 'first publication' by the outlet; no further details were provided in the initial notice. The investigation follows a separate recent ruling by the same court, which ordered changes to the primary ballot wording after finding it misleading. The outcome of the forgery probe remains pending.
