Police: Sufficient evidence to indict justice minister
Officials say they have enough evidence to serve indictment against Ramon for sexually harassing government employee
The complaint against Ramon was published this week, after the Tel Aviv District Court revoked the publication ban on the affair. The young woman who filed the complaint against Ramon does not work in his Ministry, and has up until recently been employed in other governmental offices.
'Ramon aggressively tried to kiss me'
The woman said in her complaint that two weeks ago she completed her work at a government ministry. On the same day Ramon, who she briefly knew from her work, arrived at the office, and she asked to take a picture with him.
After taking a picture and remaining in the room alone, the young woman claims that Ramon tried to kiss her aggressively and penetrate her mouth with his tongue.
She said she did not object to him forcefully because "I didn't know what to do with myself."
Sources close to Ramon said the story was “a complete fabrication,” saying the only truth to it is the fact that the woman asked to take a photo with the minister on her last day at work. They said that it was the woman who tried to “hit” on Ramon, not the other way around.
Ramon was interrogated by the police for seven hours on Wednesday. His spokesperson said later that the minister has answered all the question, fully cooperated with his interrogators and that he believes his innocence will come to light.
