Lawyer released after 2 years without trial in Israeli jail

Thursday 15-December-2016

A Palestinian lawyer was released by the Israeli occupation authorities (IOA) overnight Wednesday after he had been locked up for a couple of years in Israeli jails with neither charge nor trial.

Palestinian lawyer Bahaa Zayoud 31 was released by the IOA from the Israeli Negev jail.

His family received him at the al-Dhahriya checkpoint in al-Khalil before they headed to his hometown in western Jenin province.

A native of Jenin’s al-Sila al-Harithiya town in the northern occupied West Bank ex-prisoner Zayoud had served a two-year administrative prison-term without charge or trial in Israeli jails.
