Israeli intelligence extends remand of newly-released Palestinian

Wednesday 8-August-2018

The Israeli intelligence extended on Tuesday the detention of Palestinian ex-prisoner Mahmoud Amjad Jaber from Jerusalem’s Shu’fat refugee camp for another 24 hours.

Jaber aged 21 was re-arrested by Israeli occupation forces outside of Gilboa prison right as he ended his 12-month jail term. He was transferred to the Mascoubiya detention center west of Occupied Jerusalem.

Jaber has spent a total of five years in Israeli lock-ups in several earlier arrests.

At the same time 23-year-old prisoner Basel Shweiki from Jerusalem’s town of Silwan was released from an Israeli jail where he had been locked up for 40 months.

Shweiki was arrested by the Israeli forces on April 1 2015.
