Lawyer: Sheikh Salah locked up in a toilet-like cell

Wednesday 13-September-2017

Palestinian lawyer Omar Khamisi has said that Sheikh Ra’ed Salah is being held under inhumane incarceration conditions and isolated inside a small cell that looks like a bathroom.

Khamisi who recently visited Sheikh Salah in Rimonim jail stated on Tuesday that his client enjoyed good morale despite his exposure to harsh detention conditions.

According to him Sheikh Salah is still locked up in a very narrow and dirty cell being monitored by internal and external security cameras all the time.

As for the latest developments of the case the lawyer said that a court hearing would be held on September 24 to listen to the indictment filed by the Israeli prosecutor against Sheikh Salah.

He pointed out that the Israeli claims against Sheikh Salah include incitement to terrorism and membership in a banned organization.
