Nochi Dankner to begin prison sentence on Tuesday

Former IDB Holding Corp. Chairman Nochi Dankner is expected to arrive in Maasiyahu Prison on Tuesday to begin his three year sentence for stock fraud.
It is not yet known if he will be given a cell in Section 10, which hosted former prime minister Ehud Olmert and other inmates who fell from grace, or placed in a different section.
Dankner, who until a few years ago was the country’s reigning business magnate, was sentenced in December 2016 to two years in jail by the Tel Aviv District Court. After appealing to the Supreme Court the sentence was increased to three years.
