MAY 12, 2008 03:45 PM

Israeli police have raided Jerusalem's city hall to seize documents from Prime Minister Ehud Olmert's time as mayor.

Mr Olmert is accused of accepting hundreds of thousands of dollars in bribes from a US businessman during his time as Jerusalem mayor from 1993-2003.

Mr Olmert has admitted accepting donations from Moshe Talansky for election campaigns but said he took no money for himself.

He is already being investigated in several other corruption scandals.

Police were also questioning Mr Talansky on Monday.

...

The accusations have cast doubt on Mr Olmert's ability to conclude a peace agreement with the Palestinians.

...

A poll released on Monday indicates that six out of 10 Israelis do not believe Mr Olmert's claims of innocence and say the scandal will weaken his ability to conclude a peace deal with the Palestinians.
