The Israeli Occupation Authority (IOA) has refused to release the Palestinian prisoner Naif Shawamra despite a court order to the effect.
Shawamra was kept by the Israeli intelligence in custody although an Israeli court has ordered his immediate release on Monday.
Several court orders were earlier issued for his release.
Shawamra who was earlier released in Wafa al-Ahrar swap deal in 2011 was re-arrested in 2014 in flagrant violation of the prisoners’ exchange deal.
