Israel’s Salem Military Court on Thursday sentenced the injured Palestinian detainee Samer Abed to 38 months in prison.
The Salem Court ruled that Samer be held for 38 months in an Israeli jail and pay a fine of 5000 shekels.
Samer has been held in Israeli detention since early 2016 after he was shot by an undercover Israeli soldier in Qablan town south of Nablus. His brother Abdul Latif was arrested by the occupation forces on the same day.
Rights groups have sounded the alarm over the mistreatment and medical neglect Samer has been made to endure in Israeli captivity. The Israeli prison authorities have been dragging their feet over the detainee’s incessant appeals for an urgent intestine surgery.
