An Israeli military court on Wednesday decided to extend the detention of the Palestinian writer Lama Khater 42 for the eighth time in a row.
Hazem al-Fakhouri Lama’s husband wrote on Facebook that the Israeli court renewed his wife’s remand for eight days “pending further investigation”.
Al-Fakhouri said that he was able to talk to his wife for three minutes during which she sent her regards to all those asking about her and supporting her outside.
Khater two days ago was transferred from Ashkelon to Hasharon jail. According to the Palestinian Prisoner Society she has been subjected to harsh and intensive interrogation since her arrest on 24th July.
A mother of five children Khater has rejected all charges leveled against her by the Israeli occupation authorities.
