Israeli Occupation Forces (IOF) arrested Friday evening the Palestinian ex-detainee Usaid al-Werdiyan 23 from Bethlehem while passing through a makeshift barrier one month after his release from the Palestinian Authority (PA) jails.

The PIC reporter revealed that captive Werdiyan had a heart attack a month ago while he was detained in jail by the PA intelligence apparatus in Bethlehem city. He is still under treatment during which a heart rate monitor battery was going to be installed in his chest the reporter added.

Werdiyan the son of the Hamas leader Hassan al-Werdiyan is an ex-detainee who served several years in Israeli jails. He was also detained more than once as a political captive in the PA jails because of his involvement in activities with the students’ Islamic bloc in a university in Bethlehem.
