The Palestinian Commission  of Detainees’ Affairs has warned of the deterioration of the health condition of detainee Abdul Rahim Salhab as  a result of the arbitrary practices of the Israeli occupation against him, foremost of which is deliberate medical negligence.
 
The commission clarified in a statement today reported by Wafa news agency that the 39-year old detainee, who is from Bethlehem, was arrested 17 years ago and he suffers from a weak heart muscle and is in urgent need of surgery and he also suffers from back disc and Helicobacter pylori and a sprained shoulder . 
 
About 4600 Palestinian prisoners inside the occupation prisons face harsh conditions of detention, as 1,800 prisoners suffer from multiple diseases due to the spread of epidemics. Among the prisoners,  about 700 prisoners need urgent treatment, especially cases of cancer, kidney failure and paraplegia.
