On Wednesday [June 12 2013] an Israeli military court decided to imprison elected Palestinian Legislator, Abdul-Jabbar Foqaha, under arbitrary Administrative Detention, without charges, for six months.

The army kidnapped the legislator on Wednesday [June 6] after dozens of soldiers invaded his home in the central West Bank city of Ramallah.

Foqaha was moved to the Ofer Israeli prison along with several kidnapped Palestinians.

It is worth mentioning that, in October of last year, the legislator was released from an Israeli prison after being detained for 10 months.

He was repeatedly kidnapped and imprisoned by the Israeli army, and spent a total of 77 months in prisons, mainly held under arbitrary Administrative Detention orders.

Last On Thursday [6 June 2013], Israel released former Palestinian Minister of Detainees, Wasfi Kabaha (50 years of age) after holding him under Administrative Detention for two years without charges or trial.
