The court does agree with the Public Prosecution Service that there was “incompleteness”. The chairman of the foundation could also have shared more information. “It cannot be otherwise than that he knew that the foundation had already received the relevant documents back from the FIOD,” the court stated. The chairman was therefore guilty of forgery and perjury. “That was because he, under oath , told the committee that he did not have access to certain documents while that was the case,” the court ruled. But that is different from deliberately not cooperating with the investigation according to the court. “There is no evidence that shows that information has been deliberately withheld.”
