Haaretz probe: Company owned by MK Lieberman's daughter made millions of shekels
Police are investigating the transfer of millions of shekels from abroad to the bank account of a company owned by the daughter of Deputy Prime Minister and Strategic Affairs Minister Avigdor Lieberman (Yisrael Beiteinu), according to a probe by Haaretz.

The probe reveals that MK Lieberman received payment amounting to hundreds of thousands of shekels before being elected to the Knesset and appointed to the cabinet.

Michal Lieberman, the lawmaker's oldest daughter, registered the company in her name in July 2004. It was opened under the name "M.L.-1," and described as an "international trade firm." The company, still active today, was listed as based in Nokdim settlement, where MK Lieberman resided.

The company has received millions of shekels from overseas. In its first five months, the company took in NIS 1.8 million. That same year, MK Lieberman received a salary of over NIS 600,000 from the company. In contrast, his daughter and two other employees were paid much less - some NIS 100,000 combined.
