Israeli daily slams Netanyahu for pricey expenses

TEHRAN (FNA)- The Maariv daily on Monday reported that Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has spent $1,700 on scented candles, $23,300 on flower arrangements and $31,600 on gardening at his official residence in Jerusalem.


The expenses, among other costs totaling about $909,000 in 2012, were detailed in a document released by a civil liberties group, AP said.

Netanyahu has been accused in the past of leading a lavish lifestyle while failing to address the middle class' economic woes.

He earlier came under fire for spending 127,000 dollars on a special sleeping cabin on a flight to London and for 3,000 dollars spent on ice cream.
