After 15 and a half years in Israeli jails the Israeli occupation authority (IOA) released on Wednesday Palestinian prisoner Mohamed al-Nadi a 32-year-old young man from the new Askar refugee camp east of Nablus city in the West Bank.
Nadi had been arrested by Israeli soldiers on May 26 2002 when he was 16 years old and soon later he was indicted and sentenced to 15 years and eight months in prison.
At the time an Israeli prosecutor charged him with being a member of al-Qassam Brigades of Hamas and being involved in military activities against Israel.
Hundreds of relatives friends and citizens received Nadi upon his release at the Huwara checkpoint and participated in a vehicular procession to the new Askar camp.
