The lawyer of detained journalist Mohamed al-Qiq was able to clinch a deal that would lead to his release in six months from an Israeli jail.
Israeli prosecutors had threatened to extract a court verdict sentencing Qiq to over two years in prison on allegations of inciting against Israel during his participation in a ceremony held by Hamas at Birzeit University near Ramallah last December.
Last May an Israeli court rejected an appeal filed against the continued detention of prisoner Qiq.
Mohamed al-Qiq was kidnapped on January 15 by Israeli soldiers at Beit El military checkpoint north of al-Bireh city.
