Published on: Friday 26 July 2019
Ethiopia has released Israeli businessman Menashe Levy from prison, according to a former staffer for U.S. Representative Chris Smith, who led a congressional delegation last August that pushed the Ethiopian government to drop charges against Levy.
The news was first reported Thursday by The Jerusalem Post, an English-language Israeli newspaper.
Levy was arrested in 2015 for financial crimes.
