38-year-old Palestinian ex-prisoner Hamza Dirbas was re-arrested by the Israeli occupation forces in Jerusalem’s northern town of al-Issawiya after he turned himself in for questioning.
Head of the Committee of Jerusalemite Prisoners’ Families Amjad Abu Asab said the occupation forces arrested Dirbas after summoning him to questioning and extended his remand for another 24 hours.
He added that Dirbas was detained on claims that he violated the post-release conditions set by the Israeli prison authorities.
Shortly after he was released from Israeli jails on February 21 after he had served a 16-year sentence Dirbas got banned for one week from Occupied Jerusalem. He returned to his hometown—al-Issawiya—on Wednesday following the end of the ban.
