RAMALLAH, (PIC)
The Palestinian Prisoner Society (PPS) has said that there are 11 Palestinian women, out of 90 female prisoners in Damon jail, administratively detained with no indictment or trial.
In a statement on Sunday, PPS affirmed that over 50 other women remain forcibly disappeared after they were recently kidnaped by Israeli forces from Gaza.
PPS also said that the Israeli occupation authority recently issued an administrative detention order against lawyer and human rights activist Diyala Ayesh from al-Bireh City for four months after she was kidnaped by Israeli forces at the Container checkpoint in the north of Bethlehem.
PPS added that Ayesh had been exposed to harsh incarceration conditions and maltreatment since her detention, especially in Hasharon jail.
“The number of administrative detainees in Israeli prisons is the highest since the 1987 uprising, surging to 3,291 administrative detainees by the end of last December,” PPS said.
The number of administrative detainees in Israeli jails has become higher than the prisoners serving sentences or awaiting trials, according to the society.
