An Israeli court in Occupied Jerusalem sentenced on Tuesday three Palestinians to house confinement and home-bans.
According to the Wadi Hilweh Information Center an Israeli jury ruled that youngster Mohamed Ubaid be released on conditions that he be subjected to house arrest be banned from al-Issawiya village for 10 days and pay a fine of 3000 shekels and a third-party fine.
The court also sentenced Ali Abu Ghanam to house confinement a ban from al-Tur village for one week and a bail of 1000 shekels.
Meanwhile Suleiman Munasra received a house arrest verdict and a one-week ban from al-Issawiya village.
In justice and law house arrest (also called home confinement home detention or in modern times electronic monitoring) is a measure by which a person is confined by the authorities to a residence. Travel is usually restricted if allowed at all. House arrest is an alternative to prison time or juvenile-detention time.
The Israeli occupation authorities use such a police as a measure of repression against anti-occupation youth and children. In such cases the child under house arrest does not have access to any means of communication and conversations are often monitored.
