After receiving criminal complaint, police have opened an investigation into former Ashkenazi chief rabbi Yona Metzger on charges that he molested a 16-year-old boy.
Metzger was called in for questioning and then released on bail a few hours later, a police spokesman says.
In 2017, Metzger was sentenced to three and a half years in prison for corruption offenses, but served only 22 months after a parole board accepted his appeal for early release. He was freed in March 2019.
