Jerusalemite journalist Lama Ghosheh released to house arrest

Wednesday 14-September-2022

The Israeli District Court in Jerusalem ordered the conditional release of the Palestinian journalist Lama Ghosheh on Tuesday afternoon.

The Israeli court decided to release Lama to house arrest on the condition of not writing on social media until her court hearing next Sunday local sources said.

Last week Israeli forces scared her children during an arrest raid on the family home in Sheikh Jarrah in Jerusalem and vandalized most of its contents. Ghosheh’s laptop and smartphone were confiscated during the arrest.

Ghosheh is the mother of two children Karmel five and Qais three. She is a journalist and currently working as a researcher at the Palestinian Museum in Birzeit north of Ramallah and doing a master’s degree in Israeli studies.
