Mansour: administrative detention renewal a violation

Mansour: Safadi’s administrative detention renewal is a violation of agreement

Palestine Information Centre
24/06/2012

NABLUS,(PIC)– The MP for Nablus province, Yasser Mansur, called for more popular events and official support for the prisoners in the Israeli prisons till the release of the remaining detainees, commenting on the Israeli court’s decision that renews the prisoner Hassan Zahi Al-Safadi’s administrative detention for an additional 6 months.

Hassan Safadi accepted to stop his strike that lasted for 70 days after the Prison administration had promised to release him as soon as his detention period ends.

The occupation had arrested Safadi on 30 June 2011 after storming his house in Nablus, and held him under the administrative detention, which, today, was renewed for the third time.

MP Mansour said that the court decision is a “flagrant violation of the agreement,” which had been signed last month by the leadership of the Captive movement and the Prison Service administration under the auspices of Egypt.

The MP Mansour appreciated the captive Safadi’s steadfastness and persistence, who insists to break the Israeli will of oppression and repression, calling on the human rights and humanitarian organizations to intervene immediately to alleviate the prisoners’ suffer in the Israeli prisons and Hassan Safadi in particular.
