A former Prime Minister's Residence worker filed a NIS 300,000 lawsuit against the Prime Minister's Office, alleging that Sara Netanyahu subjected him to repeated verbal and physical abuse. Yehiel Ohev-Ami, 61, said in the filing that he cooked and cleaned at the Jerusalem residence before being dismissed about five months ago. He alleged that Netanyahu shoved him against a wall on three occasions and made insulting remarks, including about autism after learning his son was autistic. The Prime Minister's Office rejected the allegations as baseless, said Ohev-Ami failed professionally, and said it would answer each claim in court.
