Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s wife, Sarah, has issued an formal rejection of a complaint filed against her by her former housekeeper.

The complainant, Lilian Peretz, has accused Netanyahu of paying her below the minimum wage as well as exploiting and verbally abusing her during the five and a half years she looked after the Netanyahu home in Caesarea.

Last week’s response says the complaint was “baseless, malicious and full of fabrications.” Sarah also maintains that Peretz received “warm and loving treatment” from her family. — jpost.com
