MK Marina Solodkin is the first member of Prime Minister Ehud Olmert�s party to come out openly to ask him to step down from office in light of the ongoing police investigation against him.

Solodkin on Monday released a statement that the prime minister is compelled to suspend himself in light of the ongoing investigation against him, which is not detailed due to a court-issued gag order on the case.
