The Israeli occupation authorities (IOA) on Monday evening released the Palestinian imam Sheikh Nour al-Deen al-Rajabi on conditions that he be banned from Occupied Jerusalem and pay a fine of up to 5000 shekels.

The IOA ruled that Sheikh al-Rajabi be deported from Occupied Jerusalem and the Old City for one week and that he does not reach out to a number of blacklisted persons for one month.

The Israeli intelligence summoned Sheikh al-Rajabi to questioning on Sunday at al-Mascoubiya detention center. He was later arrested and had his remand extended pending a court hearing.
