Culture and Sports Minister Miki Zohar said after his questioning in the Histadrut corruption case ("One Hand Washes the Other") that "I entered as a proud Likud member - and left as an even prouder Likud member." He added: "I answered all the questions I was asked, which unfortunately were all about purely political issues. I took the opportunity to explain at length to the investigators how Israeli politics works and has always worked, without exception, and yes, in the Likud as well." According to the suspicion, Zohar helped obtain insurance portfolios for insurance agent Ezra Gabay in exchange for votes from officials in the Likud primaries.
