The Israel Ofer military court sentenced a number of Palestinian detainees to administrative prison-terms with neither charge nor trial a rights group reported Thursday.
According to the Palestinian Prisoners Society (PPS) the Israeli Ofer court approved administrative detention orders issued by the Israeli military commander in the region.
Prisoner Sanad Ammar Abdullah was sentenced to six months in administrative detention while detainees Mohamed Madani Mohamed Awad and Mohamed Aweis were sentenced to a four-month administrative term.
Two Palestinian detainees were meanwhile sentenced administratively to three months at the same time as another Palestinian was sentenced to two months.
The Ofer court further confirmed the administrative terms of the two Palestinian detainees Mohamed al-Najar and Samer al-Natsheh both of whom will respectively serve a four month and a three-month term in Israeli lock-ups.
Administrative detention is a policy pursued by the Israeli occupation authorities that allows the incarceration of Palestinians with neither charge nor trial for renewable prison-terms.
