The Israeli occupation authorities (IOA) on Wednesday extended the detention of Palestinian journalist Nidhal al-Natsha for five days.
The IOA extended the remand of journalist al-Natsha held in the Israeli Petah Tikva detention center.
The journalist’s brother Khalil said the IOA extended his brother’s detention pending further questioning on a reportage he had conducted sometime earlier about force-feeding in Israeli jails. The IOA further justified the decision by resorting to the security file pretext.
Journalist al-Natsha was kidnapped by the Israeli occupation forces from his own family home some ten days ago.
