32 female Palestinian detainees, including 9 mothers, suffer from the ugliest type of torture at Israeli jails
OCCUPIED AL-QUDS(Jerusalem0, DEC.5, (ST)-The Palestinian Committee of Detainees and Ex-Detainees has warned against the deterioration of the heath condition of the two detainees Isra’a Ja’abis and Fairouz Albo, who are held in the Israeli jails.
The committee said in a statement released on Sunday that the female detainee Isra’a Ja’abis, in 2015 is still suffering from burn complications.
On 11 October 2015 Israa took her car to move some belongings from Jericho to Jerusalem, but there was a problem in getting her car going. In the centre of Jericho the car stopped. People helped to push it and she was able to set off once more.
A few hundred metres away from a checkpoint to the east of occupied Jerusalem, she lost control of her car which zigzagged across the road until it stopped on a bus lane on the right.
While Israa was trying to restart the car an Israeli policeman instructed her to stop, walked over to her and asked her why she stopped there. The difficulty of trying to explain was increased by the fact that the policeman spoke Hebrew and Israa spoke Arabic, so they didn’t understand each other’s language. She tried to explain the car breakdown and the difficulty to restart. At the same time, smoke started seeping from the vehicle and into the passenger compartment. Panicked, Israa opened the door of the car and tried to get out but the policeman pushed her back in, slamming the door hard on her hand. She wasn’t able to reopen the door quickly although a fire had started inside the car, apparently caused by a faulty electrical connection. The policeman, unscathed, moved away to control the traffic, leaving Israa trapped in the burning car.
As for the detainee Fairus Albo, who was arrested by the Israeli occupation forces in occupied Al-Quds four months ago – she is being held in a solidarity cell.
32 female Palestinian detainees, including 9 mothers, suffer from the ugliest type of torture at the Israeli jails amid the silence of International community on this crime.
