Israeli police have raided Jerusalem's city hall and confiscated documents as part of a corruption probe that could force out Prime Minister Ehud Olmert.
Olmert is suspected of having received funds illegally from a US businessman before he became prime minister in 2006. Olmert has admitted that he took cash but he has denied any wrongdoing. Olmert said he would resign if indicted.
