| Palestinian MP suffers brutal torture in Israeli jail, Hamas says |
| 2018-02-22 |
| [PRESSTV] The Paleostinian Islamic resistance movement, Hamas, the well-beloved offspring of the Moslem Brotherhood,, has roundly criticized the Tel Aviv regime for subjecting a politician affiliated to the group to various forms of torture as he is being kept in Israeli jails without trial or charge. Hamas, in a statement released on Wednesday, announced that 50-year-old Paleostinian Legislative Council member Abdel Nasser Abdel-Jawad has been behind bars at the high security Kishon (al-Jalameh) prison in northern West Bank for the past 50 days. The statement added that the politician has been "subjected to severe torture, pressure and threats since his arrest." Hamas noted that an Israeli military court has extended Abdel-Jawad's detention several times "without allowing him to meet his lawyer." Abdel-Jawad was placed in durance vile Youse'll never take me alive coppers!... [BANG!]... Ow!... I quit! on January 1 as Israeli military forces stormed his home in Deir Ballut town, located 41 kilometers (25 miles) southwest of Nablus. He is a member of the Hamas-affiliated Change and Reform parliamentary bloc, and has previously spent over 16 years in Israeli prisons. On January 22, Israeli military forces detained a politician linked to the Gazoo-based Hamas resistance movement along with more than a dozen other Paleostinians during separate raids across the occupied West Bank. Local sources, who asked not to be named, said Israeli forces raided the central West Bank city of Salfit, broke into the home of Omar Abdul-Razeq and detained him. |
