JENIN (PIC)– A Palestinian legal society has appealed to the Red Cross and legal institutions to pressure the IOA to release Judge Abdullah Harb who went on hunger strike three days ago.
The Nafha society defending Palestinian prisoners’ rights said that Harb went on hunger strike since Monday to protest his tragic incarceration conditions and bad treatment in addition to his administrative detention after the Zionist intelligence failed to prove any of the charges it leveled against him.
The society protested such “arbitrary measures” against a judge and urged the Red Cross to demand his release in view of his judicial immunity.
Meanwhile the IOA refused to release the Palestinian captive Rabi Ali Harb whose health condition had deteriorated noticeably over the past few weeks in occupation jails.
Lawyer of Nafha society said that local hospitals could not provide proper treatment for his paralysis inflicted on him by the IOF troops’ bullets during his arrest almost a year ago.
He has been held in Ramle prison hospital since his capture the lawyer said noting that German hospitals expressed readiness to treat him but the IOA refused to free him.
Harb’s family asked PA chief Mahmoud Abbas to intervene with the IOA to allow his treatment abroad and to save his life.
In another development the Israeli administration of Megiddo prison barred the mother of kidnapped MP Omar Abdelrazek from visiting him for the second year.
Meanwhile IOF troops invaded the West Bank town of Qabatia at dawn Thursday and broke into a number of houses.
The IOF soldiers threatened to kill wanted activists if they did not give themselves in.
