Israel's Former Prime Minister Ehud Olmert left prison on Sunday morning after serving 16.5 months of his 27-month sentence for fraud and bribery, Haaretz reports.
His release followed a decision by the Israel Prison Service parole board Thursday to shorten his sentence by more than a third.
The parole board decided that Olmert’s rehabilitation program, designed by the Prisoner Rehabilitation Authority, is to remain confidential. He will also be required to sign in with the police twice a month.
