Israel indicts nuclear whistleblower Mordechai Vanunu
Israel has indicted Israeli nuclear whistleblower Mordecai Vanunu for meeting with American citizens in Jerusalem and violating other court-ordered restrictions.
Vanunu is a former employee at Israel's nuclear reactor who served 18 years in Israeli prison for leaking details and pictures of Israel's alleged nuclear weapons program to a British newspaper in 1986. Israel neither confirms nor denies its nuclear capability.
When he was released from prison in 2004, Israel banned him from speaking with foreigners and leaving Israel, among other restrictions.
