(Ahlul Bayt News Agency) - Prisoner Abdul Majeed Khaddirat, from Toubas, continued his hunger strike for the twentieth consecutive day, despite his health deterioration, protesting his continued detention and the Israeli procrastination in implementing his first hunger strike's demands.
Khaddirat's wife told the PIC reporter that Abdul Majid resumed his hunger strike since the 12th of January 2014 protesting his re-arrest in May 2013 after being released in Wafa al-Ahrar deal in 2011 where he served nine years in custody.
Khaddirat’s health has seriously deteriorated due to Israeli medical negligence during the first hunger strike several months ago, the family added.
He refused an Israeli offer to deport him to Gaza Strip, denying any new charge against him.
Abdul Majid’s lawyer confirmed that he is determined to continue his hunger strike until his release although he has lost more than 15 kg as he only drinks water.
He suffers severe kidney and back pains, he added.
Meanwhile, an Israeli court has sentenced the female prisoner Donia Haroun, 38, for three years and one year suspended sentence.
The Palestinian Center for Prisoners' Studies confirmed that Donia was charged of smuggling money and cellular phones for Palestinian prisoners affiliated with Hamas Movement in Israeli jails.
Donia was arrested from her house in Tulkarem in May 2012. She suffers from asthma and breathing difficulties.
She was also diagnosed with diabetes after her arrest after being subjected to severe pressure during her investigation in Petah Tikva.
Donia, held in Hasharon prison, is the fiancée of captive Mohamed Fouad Wakid who spent 11 years out of his 29-year sentence.
