Israeli president eases parole conditions for ex-PM Olmert
Former Israeli prime minister Ehud Olmert
Jerusalem - Muslimchronicle
Israeli President Reuven Rivlin has eased parole restrictions on ex-prime minister Ehud Olmert, released from prison on Sunday after serving two-thirds of a 27-month sentence for corruption.
Olmert may now travel freely abroad and no longer has to report to his local police station, a presidential spokesman said on Tuesday.
But he remains barred from standing for political office for seven years.
Olmert, the country's first former prime minister to serve jail time, was released on parole on Sunday.
The 71-year-old, who served as premier between 2006 and 2009, was convicted of graft and entered prison in February 2016.
The conditions of his parole were not made public, but Israeli media reported that they include reporting to police twice a month and a ban on leaving the country.
He must also volunteer at charities that help the poor, Haaretz newspaper reported.

To 'eternal style' of late Alaia
Paris - Muslimchronicle
Two months after legendary designer Azzedine Alaia's sudden death plunged the fashion world into mourning, an exhibition in homage to the "King of Cling" opened Monday in his studios in Paris. The Tunisian-born designer, renowned for the way his clothes hugged the body, died suddenly in November aged 82, reportedly of heart failure after falling down the stairs at his home. The diminutive maverick, who ignored fashion week convention by showing when and where he wanted, in July produced his first couture collection in six years to rapturous reviews. Now some of his most iconic dresses are going on display in the glass-roofed gallery next to his studio and home in the Marais district where he used to show his creations. It includes the dress worn by supermodel Naomi Campbell, his longtime friend and muse, when she led his
