GAZA (PIC)– The PA ministry of prisoners’ affairs in Gaza strongly denounced the Israeli prison courts for renewing the administrative detention of a Palestinian woman called Nora Hashlamoun 37 from Al-Khalil city southern West Bank for the seventh consecutive time.
Riyadh Al-Ashqar the director of the ministry’s information office stated that prisoner Hashlamoun went on hunger strike last December for 27 consecutive days in order to demand the non-renewal of her administrative detention and her immediate release where she spent more than two years under administrative detention without any charge being leveled against her.
Ashqar added that the Telmond prison administration transferred her to solitary confinement to dissuade her from continuing in her hunger strike pointing out that she suffered from a kidney disease as a result of medical negligence practiced by the prison administration against Palestinian prisoners.
The Palestinian official underlined that the renewal of Hashlamoun’s administrative detention for the seventh time is in contravention of all international conventions and treaties in particular article 14 of the international covenant on civil and political rights which states that every prisoner has a right to public trial and no one must be detained arbitrarily without any charge.
The Palestinian official pointed that prisoner Hashlamoun has six children the youngest is a one-year-and-half-old baby left behind without a breadwinner as her husband Mohamed Al-Hashlamoun is also a prisoner in Israeli jails.
Meanwhile in a statement issued by prisoners of Hamas Fatah Islamic Jihad and the Popular Front on Friday the captive movement expressed its extreme anger at the escalating Israeli aggression in Gaza and the West Bank expressing at the same time their optimism that the victory over the Israeli occupation is certainly coming.
The captive movement called on the Palestinian people and all advocates of freedom and justice in the world to work on getting the siege on Gaza lifted and to disclose the true image of the Israeli occupation.
