WEST BANK (Dispatches) – A Palestinian detainee is taken to hospital after being subjected to harsh interrogation following his arrest by Zionist troops, the PLO’s Prisoners’ Committee has revealed.
General Bilal Al-Natsheh was among 13 Palestinians, most of them officials, who were arrested during raids by the Zionist troops in different parts of al-Quds and the West Bank.
According to the Committee’s lawyer, the interrogation of Al-Natsheh took place in an investigation center in al-Quds where he had been taken following his arrest at his home in the occupied city.
After a couple of hours of being interrogated, the head of the National Popular Conference in al-Quds had to be rushed to the Shaare Zedek Medical Center.
The Palestine Liberation Organization said that the Zionist regime must take full responsibility for anything that happens to General Al-Natsheh. It also called for him to be released from custody without delay.
A senior Palestine Liberation Organization (PLO) official condemned the Zionist regime’s detention of Palestinian officials in East al-Quds.
Hanan Ashrawi, member of the PLO Executive Committee, accused the occupying regime of escalating its violations against the Palestinian citizens and officials in al-Quds and its suburbs, including the storming of homes and searching into its contents.
The PLO Commission of Detainees and Ex-Detainees Affairs has earlier said in an emailed press statement that the regime’s authorities arrested earlier in the day 13 Palestinians in East al-Quds, most of them are leaders and officials.
