Hamas: Israel’s abduction of MP Jarrar aims to gag anti-Abbas voices

Sunday 2-July-2017

The abduction of the Palestinian MP Khalida Jarrar along with other leaders of the Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine (PFLP) makes part of underway attempts to silence anti-Abbas voices Hamas said on Sunday.

Hamas spokesman Sami Abu Zuhri said the abduction of PFLP’s political bureau member Jarrar dovetails underway attempts to gag activists and parties opposing the policies pursued by the Palestinian Authority (PA) President Mahmoud Abbas.

“MP Jarrar has always been known for her antagonism to Abbas’s monopolization of decision-making” said Abu Zuhri.

MP Jarrar was kidnapped by the Israeli forces at daybreak Sunday from her family home in the central occupied West Bank province of Ramallah.
