Hanegbi: Court's decision is 'heavy blow, but I respect it'

After the Jerusalem Magistrate's Court ruled Tuesday morning that the crimes which MK Tzahi Hanegbi was convicted of involved moral turpitude, the Kadima MK said that the decision "is a heavy blow, but I respect it."
Hanegbi told a press conference he will send a letter to the Knesset confirming his departure.
"My 22 years of service in the Knesset are ending now," Hanegbi said. "This moment is very sad. Sad because I know what challenges face Israel, and my ability to assist the country is now weaker."
