Palestinian pastry shop closed in J’lem after doling out sweets

Thursday 30-January-2020

The Israeli occupation police on Wednesday evening decided to shut down a Palestinian-owned pastry shop in the Old City of Jerusalem for 15 days as a punitive measure for distributing sweets.

The storeowner Abboud Abu Subaih received the closure order from the police on a charge of doling out free sweets to Muslim worshipers at the Aqsa Mosque’ doors last Friday at dawn.

Last Friday Israeli police officers detained six Jerusalemite young men while they were distributing free sweets from the pastry shop outside the Mosque where scores of Muslim worshipers flocked for dawn prayers.
