The Israeli Occupation Authorities (IOA) denied the Palestinian prisoner Mohamed Tawes 58 family visits under security pretexts.
Family sources affirmed that Israeli authorities denied Tawes family visits for security reasons although he has been held in Israeli jails for 32 years.
Tawes family members were allowed to visit him once per year; however his sister and aunt were recently prevented from meeting him despite having permits after heading to Raymond prison under the security pretext.
Tawes was arrested in Oct. 1985 and sentenced to life.
The Palestinian Prisoners Society (PPS) denounced in a statement the Israeli punitive measures against Palestinian prisoners’ families.
