PPCS appeals for release of paralyzed prisoner

Monday 4-February-2019

The Palestinian Prisoner Center for Studies (PPCS) has appealed to human rights groups and the Red Cross to pressure the Israeli authorities to release prisoner Mu’taz Abido who suffers from physical paralysis.

According to the Center an Israeli judge recommended a few days ago the release of Abido due to his health condition but an Israeli security apparatus decided to extend his administrative detention for another four months.

Abido who had spent a total of nine years in Israeli jails suffers from serious paralysis after he was injured by an Israeli explosive bullet in his pelvis and abdomen when he was detained in 2011.
