The Israeli singer, who was arrested on suspicion of hacking into Madonna's computer and leaking unreleased music, has been formally indicted.

According to Hollywood Reporter, after Adi Lederman's arrest in Tel Aviv, he has been officially charged by the country's magistrate court with four counts: computer trespassing, prohibited secret monitoring and additional computer trespassing, copyright infringement and obstructing investigation.

The 39-year-old faces allegations that he hacked into a number of private cloud and email accounts, including one registered to the office of Madonna's manager Guy Oseary.

Lederman had also been accused of leaking the American singer's track 'Give Me All Your Luvin' back in 2012, according to court documents filed in Israel.
