Israeli Harassment Against Palestinians Grows

Ramallah, March 1 (Prensa Latina) Israel s military courts held about 6,000 trials and administrative arrests of Palestinians in the West Bank last year, breaking a record in their judicial processes in the occupied territories, according to the media.

Yediot Aharonot daily says on Thursday that 2,938 administrative arrests of Palestinian were carried out without charges last year.

Detainees can be held in custody for six months or more based on secret evidence to which neither the accused nor the defense lawyers have access.

Arab Human rights champions have protested against that way of constraint of the Palestinian population.
