PA has stopped paying over 1,600 prisoners as part of reform — sources
|
[IsraelTimes] Two Palestinian sources familiar with issues concerning Palestinian security prisoners tell the Times of Israel that the Palestinian Authority has, as of this month, stopped paying the salaries of 1,612 prisoners held in Israeli prisons.
The move comes as the PA is implementing its new welfare system, which will offer stipends to Palestinians strictly based on financial need and will not account for the length of one’s prison sentence, as was the case in the previous scheme.
PA President Mahmoud Abbas signed a decree in February cancelling legislation that codified the old so-called “pay-to-slay” system, but it has taken time to come into effect, and some prisoners have continued receiving stipends based on the old policy until now.
Last month, The Times of Israel revealed that the PA invited the US to certify that the new system is in place starting June 1.
