Monday 9-January-2017

Israeli minister of public security Gilad Erdan has ordered the Israeli police not to hand over the body of Fadi al-Qanbar the young man who carried out Sunday’s ramming attack in Occupied Jerusalem to his family.

According to the Hebrew website 0404 Erdan said Israel would not return the body of the young man who carried out the truck-ramming attack in Armon Hanatziv settlement on Sunday.

He added that this “serious attack could lead to other copycat attacks” threatening that he would “not allow his family to hold a funeral where he is treated with honor.”

He also said that the body of Qanbar would be buried secretly by the security authorities in a place to which his family and friends would not have access.
