Billionaire film mogul Arnon Milchan will testify in Benjamin Netanyahu’s corruption trial from a courtroom in Brighton rather than London for security reasons.
Milchan, who is alleged to have given Israel’s prime minister expensive gifts in return for personal favours, will provide testimony remotely from a closed court.
He was originally scheduled to appear on video call from the Israeli embassy in London but it was determined that the Brighton courtroom would offer better facilities and security.
Anti-Netanyahu protestors plan to demonstrate outside the court on 25 June, when Milchan, 78, is due to speak.
