Mezan In Media
13 July 2012
Short Link:
The Israeli Occupation Forces (IOF) are continuing their policy of extorting patients and using the Gaza Strip’s border crossings, over which they exercise absolute control, to arrest Palestinians compelled by humanitarian needs to travel through them.
Hence on Sunday, 8 July 2012, the IOF arrested a patient at Bayt Hanoun (Erez) crossing, after they had called him on a previous occasion for an interview and then subjected him to cruel and degrading treatment.
After the second interview, the IOF informed the patient’s family via a telephone call late at night that they had detained him.
