Administrative detainees continue to boycott Israeli courts

About 500 Palestinian prisoners held without trial or charge in Israeli jails have been staging a boycott of Israeli courts for the 50th consecutive day to demand an end to the policy of administrative detention.

AhlulBayt News Agency (ABNA): About 500 Palestinian prisoners held without trial or charge in Israeli jails have been staging a boycott of Israeli courts for the 50th consecutive day to demand an end to the policy of administrative detention.

According to Asra Media office, the administrative detainees have launched this protest step under the slogan “Our decision is freedom.”

The administrative detainees also refuse to meet with Shin Bet interrogators as a second step in protest at their detention.

Administrative detention is incarceration without trial or charge and is widely used by Israel against the Palestinians solely at the pretext that a person plans to commit a future offense. It has no time limit and it is based on alleged secret files.
