More details are known in the Israeli sex scandal that broke on Wednesday: the primary target has been identified as Efraim Nave, chairman of the Israel Bar Association. He’s believed to have been at the center of a ring that is accused of trading judgeships in return for sexual favors. Local media are portraying Nave as being ambitious and willing to use his special access to events and issues in the legal world to gain entry to a political prize such as a seat in parliament and eventually a minister’s portfolio. The suspect is known for his hobnobbing with senior officials including the attorney general and justice minister, both of whom are on the list of police interviewees.
