Prisoner Kayed Al-Fasfus (34 years old), from the town of Dura, south of Hebron, continues his hunger strike for the 52nd day, due to his arbitrary administrative detention.
The Prisoner’s Club said that the Israeli occupation continues its intransigence and refusal to respond to the demands of administrative detainee Kayed Al-Fasfus (34 years old) from the town of Dura, south of Hebron, who has been on hunger strike for 52 days, in rejection of his arbitrary administrative detention.
The Prisoners’ Club explained, in a statement issued today, Saturday, that the occupation prison administration continues its intransigence and refusal to respond to the demand of Al-Fasfous (34 years old), as it transferred Al-Fafsous the day before yesterday from the cells of the Negev Desert Prison to the cells of the Ashkelon Prison, where the transfer operations constitute… Part of the tormenting measures that are deliberately used against strikers with the aim of physically exhausting them.
He continued that the process of transferring Phosphos, after he had exceeded 50 days of strike, to the cells instead of a “civilian” hospital, a message that the occupation is continuing a systematic process of revenge against him.
The Prisoners’ Club had confirmed that Fasfous was suffering from serious health conditions, and that the risks to his life were escalating, especially since, in addition to the prison administration’s retaliatory measures, the occupation courts were playing a major role in torturing him, and they reflected this by rejecting the appeal recently filed by his lawyer.
