Hamas: Renewal Of Detention Violation of Agreement

Hamas: Renewal Of Administrative Detention Flagrant Violation Of Agreement

30/05/2012

GAZA, (PIC)-- Hamas has condemned the Israeli occupation authority’s renewal of administrative detention of Palestinian prisoners as flagrant violation of the agreement with those prisoners.

The movement said in a statement on Wednesday that the recent renewal of administrative detention against eight prisoners including an MP would not dissuade the prisoners from their struggle to win their humanitarian rights.

Hamas held the IOA fully responsible for the consequences of its repeated violation against those “heroic prisoners”

It called on the Egyptian authorities, which patronized the agreement, to pressure the IOA into desisting from further renewal of administrative detention.
