RAMALLAH (Dispatches) -- A Palestinian detainee has died in Israeli custody after being held without charge or trial for five months.

Palestinian prisoner monitoring groups said they had been informed of Ahmad Hatem Muhammad Khdeirat’s death at Soroka Hospital in Israel. Khdeirat, 22, was detained by Israeli forces in the occupied West Bank city of Al-Khalil on May 23 and placed under administrative detention, without charge or trial. Administrative detention is a controversial Israeli policy that allows for the imprisonment of Palestinians without charge or trial.
