Palestinian released from Israel’s Negev prison in ‘shocking’ condition: Prisoners’ group
Muazzaz Khalil Abayat, 37, is in a “shocking health condition” after being released from Israel’s Negev prison where he experienced “severe beatings”, the Palestinian Prisoner’s Society says.
Abayat, a father of five from Bethlehem, was not suffering from any health conditions before his arrest nine months ago, the prisoner’s society added.
His physical condition on release “reflects sufficient testimony to what he was exposed to over the course of his detention”, the group added, saying that it held Israeli authorities “fully responsible”.
