Israeli police finally release body of Palestinian minor

Thursday 2-February-2017

After being held over two months in Abu Kabir forensic institute in Tel Aviv the Israeli police handed over the body of 16-year-old Mohamed Sallam to the Palestinian side.

Local sources reported that Israeli soldiers at a military checkpoint known as al-Jeep to the northwest of Occupied Jerusalem handed over the body of martyr Sallam to his family.

They added that the martyr’s body was transferred to Palestine hospital in Ramallah before taking it to Bir Nabala town north of Jerusalem where the funeral would take place on Thursday.

Israeli soldiers arbitrarily killed Sallam at Shuafat checkpoint on November 25 2016 and later claimed he tried to stab one of them to justify their crime.
